My opinion about the book.

I quite like the book, it quite a quick read and not boring at all.

A lot of books are really dull, this book wasn't, it was changing subject quite a lot so it wasn't reading the same thing, over and over again. And because of a bit of tension, this book was quite a quick read. Not a book you reed in an hour, but still, quite a quick read.

What is a spirit bear?
A spirit bear, also known as Kermode Bear, is simply said a white black bear. You might think 'what on earth is that?!' well, it is a rare black bear. The only thing that is different is that it is white, this sometimes happens when 2 black bears with a special gene mate.
