I know that every mother believes that her children are special, and they most definitely are. I am no different. I am quite partial when it concerns my children. But my daughter was unbelievably mature in her spiritual walk with the Lord Jesus from an early age. She portrayed many characteristics that made her who she was . . . academically intelligent, athletic, musical, and artistic. She also possessed the characteristics of Jesus and all the fruits of the Spirit. Then on May 3, 2001, something happened to completely give her the desire of her heart and change her life forever. This is her testimony through her mother's eyes and understanding.

Since the beginning of human history, bears have been regarded as animals of great power. Ethnobotanist and cultural anthropologist Wolf Storl, who spent years in the wilderness with bears, explores the fascinating relationship between bears and humans, including the history, mythology, healing lore, and biology of this formidable creature. Storl takes the reader from the bear caves of the Neanderthals to the bear-worshipping Siberian tribes of today, from the extinct cave bear to the modern teddy bear. Bears were traditionally seen as a kind of "forest human" under whose shaggy fur a king or a god was hidden, he explains. Vividly illustrating the power of myths and fairy tales to reveal more than scientific treatises about the true nature of beings--especially in the case of bears--Storl restores this magnificent animal to its rightful place at the forefront of the human imagination as well as among the dwellers of the forest.
