Blurb: “Fog Benson kicked viciously at the peacefully sleeping bear. "Get up, Ben!

Up!" Then, in a drunken rage, Benson grabbed the scythe hanging on the wall. He jabbed at Ben again and again.

The cruel pain brought the huge bear awake in a flash. With unbelievable speed his great paw lashed out, ripping into Benson's face, hurling him across the shed.

Gentle Ben has almost killed a man. It wasn't his fault- Fog Benson attacked, and Ben protected himself. But the neighbors say it could happen again.

"Get rid of your pet bear - or we'll shoot him," they tell Mark.

What can Mark do?”
