Publisher's Synopsis
Ulysses wants to learn about the world, and why humans and bears are different. But Ulysses is a bear. Every time he gets close to the human world, he gets tranquilized and dumped back into the forest. Read the story of a curious bear with existential questions and the trials he faces in the pursuit of answers from a hostile world. Each pair of pages features the story of Ulysses' odyssey, a relevant factoid footnote by C. Jared Castor, and a full-sized image to be colorized with pencils. The moral (not to surrender your dreams when confronted with hostility) and the plot (personal enrichment) are worth sharing with readers of any age. This book is 34 pages long and designed for a wide range of skill levels. Emphasis on vocabulary building and the integration of fact and fiction render Ursa Major an enticing educational tool.
