A gripping graphic novel adaptation of Lauren Tarshis's bestselling I Survived the Attack of the Grizzlies, 1967, with text adapted by Georgia Ball and art by Berat Pekmezci。
No grizzly has ever killed a human in Glacier National Park before。。。 until tonight。 Eleven-year-old Melody Vega and her family come to Glacier every year。 Mel loves it here — the beautiful landscapes and wildlife make it easy to forget her real-world troubles。 But this year is different。 With Mom gone, every moment in the park is a reminder of the past。
Then Mel comes face-to-face with a mighty grizzly。 She knows basic bear safety: Don't turn your back。 Don't make any sudden movements。 And most importantly: Don't run。
That last one is the hardest for Mel; she's been running from her problems all her life。 If she wants to survive tonight, she'll have to find the courage to face her fear。
Based on the real-life grizzly attacks of 1967, this bold graphic novel tells the story of one of the most tragic seasons in the history of America's national parks — a summer of terror that forever changed ideas about how grizzlies and humans can exist together in the wild。
