  Giving Something Back: This is a heartwarming story of a non-native who, as a young boy, lived on an Indian reserve. His family ran the general store and were the only white people on the reserve. He learned many things living with the Indians: how they survived in the wilderness and how they lived in harmony with nature.

In his later years he travels to the Yukon where he befriends an Indian woman and her two children. The four of them spend the winter living in a tepee deep in the woods.

This story recounts the fun times and the harsh times where, at forty below zero, they have a running battle with a wolverine who invades their food supply. Later on, a grizzly bear wrecks their tepee and threatens to kill them. Within the book, the author tells three separate and unique grizzly bear stories, one of which ultimately saves their lives.
