I'm off my rocker and on the rug.
I see some dust. I see a bug.
I sit, I stoop, I creep, I crawl.
When I try to stand, I fall.

Product Description
You are the dark shape I find
On nights of the spilling moon,
Pale in the pool of heaven.
You are spirit, you are that
Which summons me and confirms
My passage. You know my name...
--from "Revenant"

N. Scott Momaday's unique connection to the beauty and spirituality of the natural world surfaces in all of his works, from his Pulitzer Prize-winning novel House Made of Dawn to his more recent collection In the Presence of the Sun. Yet In the Bear's House is Momaday's intensely personal quest to understand the spirit of the wilderness embodied in the animal image of Bear.

Intimately linked to Bear since his childhood, Momaday searches for this elusive yet omnipresent spirit who is both the keeper and the manifestation of the wild mountains, rivers, and plains. Exploring themes of anguish, forgiveness, and belief, Momaday journeys from the bitter Siberian taiga to the blackening night sky to deep within his own timeless essence, and reveals Bear to be both a radiant presence and spiritual restorative. In the first section, Momaday uses dialogues between the original Bear, Urset, and his creator, Yahweh, to probe the troubling consolation of language, the wonder of prayer, and the grace of storytelling. The bold, finely wrought language of the poems and passages collected here evoke the despair, bewilderment, and valor of the hunted Bear as well as the ultimate redemption and fulfillment to be found in the ritual of death. The provocative original paintings throughout In the Bear's House powerfully enhance our interpretation of Bear by suggesting his many incarnations.

Through both word and image, Momaday brings us deep into his vision of Bear's house and further distinguishes himself as one of the most luminous visionaries of our time. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars In the Wilderness
Momaday's IN THE BEAR'S HOUSE is made up of a dramatic dialogue, some poetry and some prose passages. The book itself is made unique and beautiful by Momaday's inclusion of some of his own paintings and illustrations--all variations of Bear--the elusive wilderness, which Momaday describes in his thoughtful "Introduction" and in his later poetry. The cover's title, presumably a reproduction of Momaday's handwriting, is clearly designed to convey a sense of intimacy. Still, while the writing collection reflects Momaday's unique spiritual explorations, the collection can be taken, too, as an invitation for each reader to begin a personal dialogue with the wilderness on the premise that doing so can be universally good and fruitful. Momaday suggests, I think, that anyone can experience the spirit of the wilderness by cultivating the proper vision--as defined by the wilderness itself. I recommend this particular collection and, as always, the general beauty of Momaday's personal, timeless perspectives.

4-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Book of Mostly Great Content
N. Scott Momaday's *In the Bear's House* is an interesting mix of Momaday paintings, poetry, prose, and dialogues. N. Scott Momaday's bear paintings that adorn this book throughout are worth the price of admission on this book alone. From simple single color outlines to rich, colorful interpretations, the artwork will bring you back to this book over and over again. The poetry and prose about bears and their representation of wilderness and all things wild is simple, elegant, and expressive.

What I didn't care much for and why I give only 4 stars as a rating is the dialogues that dominate the first half of the book. These dialogues are between Bear and God, and frankly I found them a bit tedious and pointless. I was hoping for a much more meaningful exploration of God and his/her/its role in the world - specifically the wilderness. Instead, these conversations with God seem to meander into a wilderness of their own, getting lost along the way.

A Guide to my Book Rating System:

1 star = The wood pulp would have been better utilized as toilet paper.
2 stars = Don't bother, clean your bathroom instead.
3 stars = Wasn't a waste of time, but it was time wasted.
4 stars = Good book, but not life altering.
5 stars = This book changed my world in at least some small way.

5-0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking work of beauty
This book presents Momaday's work--new and old--concerned with Bear and the idea of wilderness. It offers poetry, drama, and painting all centered on Bear as a representation of the wilderness. Momaday's idea of thewilderness reflects neither the central strand in American life that comesdown from the Puritans, nor the preservationist ideology of urban-boundenvironmentalists, but his writing critically reflects upon both thesetraditions. Momaday finds Bear, and hence the wilderness, in a conversationbetween God and the original bear while eating huckleberries, on a train inMoscow, in the drawing for a bronze statue, and many other such places.Throughout this book, the author's life-long concern for the life of theimagination as our best existence (as he has often said) shows forth. Thisbook is an excellent introduction to the work of a great American writer,as well as a beautiful addition to any collection already well-stocked withMomaday's work.

I taught this book as the first in a sequence of fivebooks in a course on Native American poetry. The students loved it. Some ofour discussions of the paintings were among the best my classes have had.

5-0 out of 5 stars Brilliant
Brilliant, moving, insightful, memorable. Momaday is a treasure, and this is his best yet. ... Read more

At once frightening and engaging, bears have captivated the human imagination for centuries. Huge in size, powerful in body and tenacious in nature, bears of all kinds have found their way into the stories and mythologies of cultures both modern and ancient. In North America, where they inhabit vast stretches of wild territory, bears appear in Native legends under various names, including Big Feet, Black Beast and the Golden King. In the wilderness, bears are agile tree climbers and swift runners, able to keep pace with a horse and outrun a human. Admired as masters of their forest domain, we long to catch sight of them while forgetting their strength and wild nature. Here, in the thrilling images in Bears 2002, world-renowned wildlife photographers have safely captured the majestic spirit of the bear for all to enjoy. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Such a great book.
Wish Bear's Book of Wonderful Wishes is, well, wonderful.The book is small, but thick, and it really stands up to abuse.The jointed spine enables the book to basically be bent backward with few detrimental effects.The text is basically a list of great things that Wish Bear brings to wishful children:new sneakers, puddles to jump in, kittens who purr, hats to wear anywhere, milk to drink, etc.A great selection of desirable items with an illustration for each!A couple pictures have moons in them, so my son signs "moon" at the sight of the book.There should be at least one thing here that pretty much any kid wants, and the idea that Wish Bear wants kids to have these things is very heartwarming. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Yoga and Character Building Program
Angel Bear Yoga is a great character building foundation for children and their parents.I am a home school mother of two and love the Pose a Day cards.I use them when things get a bit hectic and I cannot fit in a full lesson.They are also great to pull and do a pose before the day begins, to help us focus for a tough lesson or for some quiet time before we lie down for bed in the evening.They are a great addition to the Angel Bear curriculum or stand alone on their own!

5-0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Introduction to Yoga for Young Children
Although the Angel Bear Yoga program does not use traditional names for poses et cetera, it's theme of positive character traits really has preschoolers interested.My three year old LOVES it, and she talks about all of the traits and poses she learns with everyone in the family.She likes to "define" them as well.I think it empowers her as well as fostering creativity, relaxation, and appreciation of nature.

The Card Deck is an excellent starting point, but the Main Lesson Book, Companion book, and DVD are wonderful tools for teachers to extend the lessons in other areas of learning.

3-0 out of 5 stars Yoga Pretzels is Better
I ordered this yoga card deck with the intention of using it with my three year old who loves the books "My Daddy is a Yoga Pretzel," "Little Yoga," and "Sleepy Little Yoga."We also use YogaKids together.I thought that she would like these cards because she enjoys animals, but the pictures are not as clear as in the books we use.Angel Bear's wings, which you can see from the product picture, distract from the poses.Also, though I initially thought my daughter would enjoy doing yoga with a bear, I think it's better for her to see pictures or illustrations of kids or grown-ups.She's only three, but she already realizes that animals' bodies are different from hers.Another thing to consider:this deck does not use any of the names for poses that you'd normally learn in yoga class or from a book.Each pose is renamed with a character trait like, "optimism," "creativity," "abundance."I think that could be confusing if you want your child to engage in yoga practice from other sources.I'd recommend the Yoga Pretzels deck over this one. ...

2-0 out of 5 stars Papa Bear is the best at being worst.
In Mama Bear's decathalon, Papa Bear loses each athletic even to his small children, finally winning the sleeping event at the end.

The irony of a grown man (bear) being more juvenille than his children is perhaps amusing to a certain extent, but the degree of Papa Bear's pathetic oafishness leads me to suspect that he is either mentally or physically handicapped.

There is a point in ridiculing a character at which he become pitiable. Maybe that doesn't apply to fathers.

4-0 out of 5 stars Discover your talents!
This book not only teaches about superlatives but also about discovering where our true talent lies. Everybody is good at something and it just takes some patience to find out what we can do best. Finally, this book is also amusing and centres around having fun throughfamily-togetherness.

Brother and Sister Bear take turns at winning theBear's Mini-Olympics and poor Father Bear seems to be the one who alwayscome up last. What IS Father Bear good at? Finally, we find that there issomething Father Bear is good at! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Not Exactly Quick and Easy, but Still Great
Following the pattern in this book yields a very professional-looking teddy bear. The fabric you choose will really change the bear's appearance. My only concern with the book is the title, specifically the words "quick and easy." It normally takes me a day to put together a stuffed animal, but this bear took a long time, especially since it used joints that have to be installed from the inside. The joints weren't easy to use (I had to create my own, because the ones I bought wouldn't fit together).

If you have never sewn a bear together before, or want to make it easier, it helps to (1) use textured felt instead of faux fur (although it doesn't stretch/give, it's thinner and easier to sew with); (2) sew the limbs on instead of jointing them (in my experience, doll joints are impossible to put on!). If it's your first bear, these tips might help, and then you can proceed to the more advanced job of using thick faux fur and joints.

Have fun!

Product Description
The Tracks Disappeared as the bear walked out of the thin snow, as the new snow disappeared into open patches of sun. I thought of how the mild sun must feel on his thick coat ... I thought of the sweeping length of his claws. How can the world still have such a wondrous beast in it -- just on the edge of surviving, but still here? -- Rick Bass

Powerful, fierce, and magnificent, the Bear is the subject of myths and legends -- an animal that strikes in us a sense of fear, caution and curiosity. Portrayed in folklore and fiction as naive yet intelligent, forgiving yet vicious, the Bear transcends all that divides man and animal, suggesting how alike we are, yet how fascinatingly different.

If we are lucky, we see the Bear through its tell-tale signs -- a claw-scarred tree, the buried carcass of an elk or deer, or the chewed remains of a salmon left along a mountain stream. But we come to know the Bear through those who have encountered them, those who have met the Bear face-to-face and survived.

Mark of the Bear is a remarkable collection of ten original and previously published essays by leading American nature it is a tribute to the spirit of this American icon though Filled with spectacular full-color of the nation's best nature and Mark of the Bear provides a unique personal encounters with these living with these living legends.

Natural historian Paul Schullery is the author of many books and articles on nature, natural history, and Americana, including The Bears of Yellowstone, Glacier & Waterton: Land of Hanging Valleys, American Fly Fishing: A History, and the critically acclaimed Mountain Time. Schullery is an avid wilderness supporter who has observed bears for many years while living and working in Yellowstone National Park. Adjunct professor of history at Montana State University, past executive director, and now trustee emeritus of The American Museum of Fly Fishing, Schullery divides his backcountry time between Glacier and his home park of Yellowstone. ...
