Overview

A gripping graphic novel adaptation of Lauren Tarshis''s bestselling I Survived the Attack of the Grizzlies, 1967, with text adapted by Georgia Ball and art by Berat Pekmezci.

No grizzly has ever killed a human in Glacier National Park before... until tonight. Eleven-year-old Melody Vega and her family come to Glacier every year. Mel loves it here — the beautiful landscapes and wildlife make it easy to forget her real-world troubles. But this year is different. With Mom gone, every moment in the park is a reminder of the past.

Then Mel comes face-to-face with a mighty grizzly. She knows basic bear safety: Don''t turn your back. Don''t make any sudden movements. And most importantly: Don''t run.

That last one is the hardest for Mel; she''s been running from her problems all her life. If she wants to survive tonight, she''ll have to find the courage to face her fear.

Based on the real-life grizzly attacks of 1967, this bold graphic novel tells the story of one of the most tragic seasons in the history of America''s national parks — a summer of terror that forever changed ideas about how grizzlies and humans can exist together in the wild.
