Summary: No grizzly has ever killed a human in Glacier National Park...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.

I survived.
