Spooner the Bear is a children's board book that tells the story of Spooner, a young bear who's determined to change the trash-eating habits of his fellow neighborhood furry friends, and with any luck educate a few humans along the way! Written by Jake Willers, who was inspired after spending the last few years filming black bears at Lake Tahoe and seeing first hand the issues urban bears face. Illustrated by the extremely talented artist Lainie Bazzoni, Spooner the Bear is a book that children will want to read, or have read to, over and over again while marveling at the wonderful artwork.
