Touching Spirit Bear

The book Touching Spirit Bear was written by Ben Mikaelsen. I chose this book because I like a story that has a twist Because it keeps you on edge. The book was about a kid that almost killed another kid and he was sent off to a island for a year.

In the book a kid named Cole Matthews beat up a kid named Peter. Cole beat him up because Peter told the cops that Cole stole some items from a grocey store. After Cole beat up Peter he had a choice to either go to jail or go stay on an island for one year. Cole chose to go to the island. The island was located up by Alaska. There were two guy that went up to the island to drop him off. After the guys dropped Cole off he tryed to escape by swimming to an island one mile away but he couldn't so he got back on the island and fell asleep. The next day a bear came near Cole and when he tryed to kill the bear it muled him. He was rescued and taken to the hospital. It was six months before he returened to the island. Cole changed after he was mauled. After a while Peter came to the island and they became friends.

Those are some of the things that I like about a twisting story. My favorite part was when Cole made a big meal for every one.
