About Bearstone by Will Hobbs
Will Hobbs’s young adult adventure follows Cloyd Atcitty, a Ute boy sent to work for Walter Landis, an older rancher on an isolated Colorado farm. Cloyd has been skipping school and has run away from a group home for Native American boys.
After finding a turquoise bear carving in a cave, Cloyd keeps it in the hope that it will give him strength. A serious conflict with Walter leads to a last chance for the two to ride into the mountains and reopen the rancher’s abandoned gold mine. The journey among Colorado’s remaining grizzlies puts Cloyd’s courage and loyalty to the test.
Published in 2004, Bearstone may appeal to young readers interested in adventure, coming-of-age fiction, and stories connected to Ute identity and Colorado’s mountain country.
