The first in the series of books about bears from the creators of The Warrior Series. This book tells the stories of the cubs Kallik (polar), Toklo (grizzly), and Lusa (black), and the problems they face on their seperate journies, which include territorial bears, humans, and global warming.

Their mothers tell them all of a special place they can find if the follow a certain star. Each species has their own story for the star, but they all follow it, so far. They should meet later in the series. ( )

The book the seekers the quest by Erin Hunter was an astounding and terrific read especially for those who love animals. Being an animal lover myself I found myself connected to the story. It was an inspiring and touching read that I find great for young adult readers everywhere.

The book is about three different bears one a polar bear, one a black bear, and one who is a grizzly bear. The are each orfined as cubs and find themselves meeting as they fight for survival. In a world filled with humans "or as the bears call them flat faces" who are locking them in zoos or ruining there means means of food these bears must survive. The story itself was good but the way Erin wrote it makes it so much better.

Erin's use of dialog and description make this book even better. She makes it feel like your right there with the bears. Enduring there hard ships and celebrating when they are celebrating. Just like the warriors series Erin show her fantastic skills with her writing and her usual yet enjoyable taste of dialog and excellent description! ( )

This is a book a bout three bears. Two of them meat up but where is the third one at? Well she is still looking for her brother. The two first bears meat in the forest and one of the bears has a hitch hiker with him that can transform into animals and humans too! The three bears family's have all died when they where young. They don't know how to hunt to well. If they work together then they can survive the winter. But one of the bears don't know how to hunt. Because she use to live in a zoo but she got out into the wild. Read the book to find out more.

To me the book is saying that no matter how different you are you can make friends with any one. This book has no romance and a lot of action but can be a bit funny. This is a adventure book for people that love a good adventures. You will see the world through the bear's eyes. Soon the three bears will come together in the 2ed book. You will see the world differently than you do before you read the book. You will read that what we do is making the bears and the rest of the world hard to live in.It is a book that is hard to put down. ( )

The first book of the Seekers series, The Quest Begins follows three young bear cubs with very different backgrounds on their adventures. Each chapter is told from the point of view of either Kallik, a polar bear cub, Toklo, a grizzly bear cub, or Lusa, a black bear cub, as they learn how to survive on their own.

A long, long time ago, long before bears walked the earth, a frozen sea shattered into pieces, scattering tiny bits of ice across the darkness of the sky.
