W. J. Bear writes his own story of things that have happened in his young life. He is a normal young bear cub, ready to go at a moment’s notice. He is almost human but still a bear. He experiences things like the great outdoors, swings, slides, and recycle, where his nose and smells get the better of him. Sometimes, getting distracted is the most fun. Dirt is okay and can be loads of fun until his mom sees him. Then it can become his worst enemy.

In WJ’s world, bears don’t have names. Everyone goes by two letters. WJ and his sister QT are part of a normal bear family. Mom and Dad have two letters for their names, too, but WJ just calls them Mom and Dad, which helps keep things simple. Simple is always better for WJ.

Then things get complicated. The food supply starts getting low, and the family has to move. Where will they go, and what will happen to them? Dad is taking care of everyone, including WJ and sister Q T.

Come along with me, and see what life is like for a little mischievous bear cub named W. J. Bear.
