Ernest Thompson Seton
A collection of animal stories written in the late 19th century. The narrative primarily revolves around the lives of animals in Yellowstone Park, particularly focusing on the experiences of Johnny Bear, a misfit bear cub, and his mother Grumpy, alongside other tales detailing the challenges faced by various creatures in the wild. The opening of ''Johnny Bear'' introduces readers to Johnny, a frail bear cub with a penchant for mischief and a fatherly bond with his formidable mother, Grumpy. Set against the backdrop of Yellowstone Park, the text showcases Johnny's quirks and challenges, including his struggles with illness and clumsiness. The author recounts an encounter with other bears at a garbage heap where Johnny's antics and curiosity draw reader interest. Additionally, the narrator reflects on his own observations while hiding among the bears, providing both humor and insight into their behavior and interactions with one another, setting the stage for the stories to unfold in this charming anthropomorphic exploration of the animal kingdom.
