| Summary | "The Three Bears of Porcupine Ridge" by Jean M. Thompson is a fictional children's story written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers on the adventures of a mother bear and her two cubs, exploring the natural world around Porcupine Ridge while facing challenges from the environment and human intrusions. Through their experiences in the wild, the story likely conveys themes of family, bravery, and the beauty of nature. The opening of the story introduces the three bears living a joyful life in a cozy den at the foot of Cushman Mountain. The mother bear, a nurturing figure, leads her playful cubs in their daily adventures, foraging for food in the forest. One fateful night, driven by a longing for adventure, the mother bear discovers a patch of honey, leading to unforeseen complications as she becomes trapped by the farmer who seeks to protect his property from her mischief. The dynamic between the bears and the farmer sets the stage for an engaging tale of resilience and family ties, as the cubs seek to reunite with their mother in the face of adversity.
