The Strong Bear of Venice

By: Roberts, Katy S.

A story of how friendship and encouragement strengthen us.

Six-year-old Bernard Sterling Wellington wants to explore the world. But mild cerebral palsy makes Bernie's dreams feel impossible.

He cannot walk without help. He cannot run or play ball with the boys he watches from the window of his villa in Venice, Italy.

Worst of all, he lacks hope that he will ever be able to do what other children can do.

Everything changes when Luna and her special black cat Fortuna arrive for a long visit.

With wise Luna as his tutor and new friends by his side, Bernie enjoys his first adventures.

Best of all, he discovers his inner strength and begins to believe in himself.

Will Bernie's new confidence be enough to protect his friends when danger comes close?
