It’s a good book because it’s emotional rollercoaster and has a happy ending. It’s also fiction.

The story line is excellent. The villain is fascinating. 4 stars because the plot seemed unfinished. I enjoyed the relationship between the boy and the bear and I loved how the boy got entangled in the quest.

The Boy Who Saved A Bear is a fictional book. My favourite character is Sani for being brave, courageous and believing in her friend even when hope was low. If you are looking for a book about animals, this books is for you! I recommend this book to 9-12 year olds.

Nuwan accidentally stops a plot by Mr and Mrs Weerasinghe to take a stolen item to the Queen. Meanwhile Koradi the bear wants to come along. Can Nuwan prove that Koradi isn't dangerous and take the stolen item to the Queen?

I think I like Nuwan best because he would do anything to protect the key of Nissanka and he would not rest until the Key was given to the Queen. I would recommend this book to people who like adventures.
