Berries & Bones: The Song of the Forest, Book 1

By James Stephans

Illustrated by the author, Berries & Bones follows the birthday misadventures of a curious old bear as he gets lost in the Forest looking for mushrooms, and must find his way home. "There was something strange on the breeze. It wasn't a creature. And it wasn't a plant. But it also wasn't anything else, either living or dead, that Old Mr. Bear had ever encountered before." Today is the last day of fall. It is also Old Mr. Bear's birthday. After a few morning chores and a scrumptious breakfast, Old Mr. Bear sets out from his den beneath the yew tree in search of mushrooms for dinner. But it would seem the Forest has other plans. Guided by a tall black rabbit with magnificent antlers, Old Mr. Bear is caught up in a bizarre and magical adventure filled with ancient monsters, haunting smells and secret orders. For in the Wilds, mystery lurks around every corner. Berries & Bones is James Stephans' debut novel, and the first installment of The Song of the Forest series.
