A boy and a bear meet, become friends and have the adventure of their lives! From the author of The Girl Who Stole an Elephant comes another brilliant escapade. The fourth thrilling adventure set in a fictional Sri Lanka is jam-packed with peril, thieves and a terrifying bear!

Nuwan works at the library, delivering books. One day, he accidentally takes away a very valuable key that’s been hidden inside one of the books, and in the process thwarts the plans of some very dangerous thieves. On the run, he hides in a cave, only to discover in the middle of the night that he is sharing it with a big, hairy, terrifying bear! After some hair-raising moments, he and the bear reach an understanding and they travel on together, evading the bad guys and hoping the key will unlock the answers to the mystery so that they can stop running and return home…

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.

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.
