Moon Bear by Gill Lewis
5.0
adventurous dark emotional informative inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

A childhood favourite, still a great story as an adult. 

The character development and overall message of the book is written really well. The characters felt real and I really cared about what happened to them. 

With hard hitting topics that probably went over my head when I was little, I was really happy to find that I enjoyed this just as much now as I did then!

Cudos to the author for bringing up real stories to kids is a digestable and intriguing way. 

Still a favourite to this day!
