Kids that love the outdoors and hunting are pretty common in our area. I remember my dad finally allowing me to join him on his hunting adventure. I remember sitting quietly in the woods and waiting for raccoons to come out to explore. I’m glad I went, but it wasn’t my favorite thing. Several of my nieces and nephews hunt for deer, turkey, pheasants, and even bears. Here in Iowa, there is a deer season to help control the deer population. In Minnesota, there is a bear hunting season for the same reason. This story shares Luke’s hunting adventure with his dad to catch his first bear.
Fall in Minnesota is bear hunting season. Filling up barrels with bait and waiting in your stand for the bear to visit can take days. Luke and his dad set up a trail camera to check for visits. Sometimes they will spot raccoons or deer on the trail camera, but recently they have spotted a mama bear and her cubs. A bear with cubs is not available for hunting, so they are waiting for that bear that seems to be leaving big footprints around the area.
As the big hunting weekend arrives, Luke and his dad and Megan and her dad head out to the cabin for the weekend. They check the cameras, note the times, set up, and wait. Will the bear return to the bait barrel or will they have to wait another year to catch the big bear? Or are there two big bears in the area?
This is an approachable chapter book with a few pictures to keep kids engaged. Some of the pictures are illustrations, but the author has also included actual photos of hunting experiences with his children. There is a good build-up to the end of the hunting excursion. The author also makes sure to include hunting safety embedded in the story. Kids who are new to hunting or may be interested in trying it out should try out this Hunting Adventure series.

Our 5 year-old loves hunting with his daddy! This book was a perfect morning read-aloud. He was INTO it by chapter 3 and we read it several times a day together and finished the whole book in just a few days. We have already ordered more books in the series. It was exciting, instructional, and well-written. Luke seems like a good kid who respects his parents and friends and honors the tradition of hunting as well as the animals he hunts. VERY happy with this book as a read-aloud for younger kids- (I don’t have any older kids who can read chapter books on their own).

Luke is my favorite character, he is the main character and a little bit funny. This is his first year hunting with his Dad.
What surprised me was when Luke's sister didn't come hunting with Luke and his Dad. She would rather stay home but she normally goes hunting with them.
I would not change the ending because Luke gets a big bear but they had to stay an extra day at the cabin.

The third book from the series. Still pretty amazing! I like how Luke is not the only person who got animals. Highly recommend it to Grade 3 and up who are interested in hunting. Not recommended for environmentalists or anyone who advocates for animal protection.

Great Adventure
Great. Loved it. Awesome adventure. His words not mine. It kept my grandson's attention. He will read it again. Thank you Mr. Lovegreen for writing for children that want an adventure.

Read aloud with my son. It was a quick read but was a wonderful portrayal of family and hunting with family.

Read this because the kids at school have been reading his books. Not bad just not my thing because I don’t hunt.
