I survived the attack of the grizzlies, 1967: a graphic novel (i survived graphic novel #5)

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.
