Fraser Bear tells the story of the first two years in the life of a bear cub living at the foot of Mount Robson,
the tallest of the Rockies, and the story of the chinook salmon who spawn there, in the headwaters of the Fraser

Come to the book launch on Thursday, May 6 at 7pm at Kidsbooks, 3083 West Broadway,

from the author. A celebration!
