D.J. Dillon rescues a motherless bear cub that seems like a fun pet at first. Through a series of hilarious misadventures, the cub grows fond of “city life” and causes all sorts of damage, not to mention trouble for D.J.  To make matters worse, the local bully, Nails Abst, claims the cub is his. D.J. knows he has to find a new home for the bear, but he doesn’t want the hard-hearted Nails to have him.

In this second book in the D.J. Dillon series, an unusual situation helps resolve the situation, and D.J. learns that letting go of something you love is the hardest part of caring.
A glossary is included in the back of the book.
