As a New York City kid recently forced to move to the Great Bear Rainforest by his parents, what Ray doesn't have is a lifetime of outdoor instincts or familiarity with the valley and its wildlife. That makes him very different from his grumpy grandfather, who--like his new school friends--berates his city-kid uselessness at every opportunity. Can Ray use his drones and smarts to prove himself, find his cub, and expose what's going on in the woods?"--Back cover.
