The book “OH NO, GERTRUDE!” is a picture book telling the true story of a Black Bear named Gertrude and her 3 little bear cubs, who had their lives put at risk because of naughty people. I wrote this book to teach people how to help keep Black Bears safe.
“An insightful, accurate book -- everyone young and old needs to hear the message Gabriel presents here: we have a people problem not a bear problem! The future of these present, intelligent, misunderstood animals depends on it. Gabriel is an amazing boy who has a profound love of wild animals coupled with an innate understanding of bears -- this type of understanding is a gift, one that few in this world have.”
-- Chris Day, Naturalist and co-star with the bears in the National Wildlife Federation film BEARS IMAX.
