ON A MIST-COVERED MOUNTAIN
Reviews:"In a short poetic text, the author of "Hooray for Snail!" relates a trance-like experience of being a bear on a misty mountain, learning tight-rope walking from two parental-looking bears..."
*Publishers Weekly" "What would it be like to waken as a bear on a mist covered mountain? If that's not frightening enough, it gets more complicated. The deceptively simple plot is cumulative and suspenseful - down to the last page. It takes on fear of the unknown and rises above it." *Chattanooga News Free Press* 
What would it be like
To awaken A bear On a mist-covered mountain No memories in sight Approached by strangers Who teach tightrope walking To children on high wire One step after another Knees shaking, eyes wide open, You stumble and reach out But all is well You go on alone To where the children welcome you And accept you as one of their own There, on a mist-covered mountain
