Date read: Saturday the 17th of November.

I chose to read this book because once in a while I get tired of reading the same kind of books and wanted to read something different. 

1st Quote: "We can't go over it. We can't go under it. Oh no! We've got to go through it."

Opinion: I think that this is a way of saying that you will have problems in life and sometimes the only thing you can do is push through it.

2nd Quote: "We're not scared"

Opinion: I think that in life it is okay to be scared, but it is good to be brave. 

Summary:  It's a beautiful day, a brave family is going on a bear hunt, there not scared. They go through long wavy grass, a deep cold river, thick oozy mud, a big dark forest, a swirling whirling snowstorm, when finally they come across a cave, could this belong to a bear? They tiptoe in when they hear something, it's a bear!

Quick! Back through the cave! Tiptoe! Tiptoe!

Back through the snowstorm! Wooo Hooo! Wooo Hooo!

Back through the forest! Stumble trip! Stumble trip!

Back through the mud! Squelch squerch! Squelch squerch!

Back through the river! Splash splosh! Splash splosh! 

Back through the grass! Swishy swashy! Swishy swashy! 

Back home and under the blankets. There not going on another bear hunt.          

Language feature: Onomatopoeia

"swishy swashy" (when the family is walking through the long grass).

Onomatopoeia helps the reader to have a better idea of what is happening in the book and helps you create a

clearer picture in your head.

It is linked to the world in a few ways:

1. In the book a family is going on an adventure and in the world people go on adventures with their families

too.

2. In the book there is a snowstorms and in the world there are also snowstorms.

I enjoyed this book and I think you will too. ❤👍
