Review of Bearstone

I listened to a book called Bearstone by Will Hobbs.  It was OK, I guess....

It's about a boy who stays with an old man and finds a carved stone in the shape of a bear in a Native American cliff tomb!  I think the main intent is that revenge is bad.  I think that because when he cut down the old man's plum trees, he got to go home.  Plus, he said so.

I don't really recommend this book.  It put me to sleep.

Today, I went to the Grand Canyon!  At it, I survived a talk about the California Condor.  I also saw the sunset there.  It was pretty!

I also survived a trip to a Native American Fair...I made a pot!

Today, I went on a fossil walk.  I saw a bunch of fossils.  I saw a shell, coral, and a sponge!  I also learned about the Grand Canyon and geology.
