Imagine having a holiday in Vancouver, swimming and canoeing from gorgeous beaches, camping under different stars and hiking through the woods. That’s what Lucy gets to do and it’s all vividly described in Holly Webb’s latest book. Most exciting of all for Lucy though, she gets to see bears, and one little bear cub in particular, who almost seems to be following her around.
As ever in Holly Webb’s stories, readers will feel they are right there with Lucy. There’s lots to learn about bears and their behaviour and some exciting and very dramatic events, but Lucy’s new friendship with her cousin Kitty will beguile readers too.
Lucy is so excited to spend the summer holidays with her cousins in Canada, but when they tell her to watch out for wild bears in the forest, her excitement turns to fear.

A heartwarming story about family and the beauty of nature from best-selling author Holly Webb.
An enchanting read, perfect for fans of Jill Tomlinson’s animal stories and Michael Morpurgo’s younger fiction.
Watch author Holly Webb talk about her writing here
Holly Webb was born and grew up in south-east London, but spent a lot of time on the Suffolk coast. As a child, she had two dogs, a cat, and at one point, nine gerbils (an accident). At about ten, Holly fell in love with stories from Ancient Greek myths, which led to studying Latin and Greek, and eventually to reading Classics at university. She worked for five years as a children's fiction editor, before deciding that writing was more fun, and easier to do from a sofa. She started writing several years ago while working as a children’s books editor. She has written over ninety books including the Animal Stories , My Naughty Little Puppy and Maisie Hitchins series for Stripes Publishing. Holly has also written In The Clever Little Kitten for World Book Day and a sequel to The Secret Garden . Holly Webb lives in Berkshire with her husband, children and three cats.
