(2) YA Living with her family in Yellowstone, Darcy finds a wounded grizzly. Recovering from an illness herself, Darcy feels a connection with the bear and tries to help her, not realizing her intervention reduces the bear's chances of survival. Thebo treads delicately between realism and fantasy; her imaginative play with realistic wilderness experience and Darcy's peculiar, lightheaded condition make this an unusual and surprising read.
