Little does he know that an evil bear-poaching gang operating in the surrounding forest has drones, too -- and a cold welcome for those who would attempt to take them down.<br/><br/>As a New York City kid recently forced to move to the Great Bear Rainforest by his parents, Ray doesn't have 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?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>Drone Chase</i> is a character-driven, first-person adventure story that would appeal to both readers looking for mystery or action and to those with an interest in dramatic character-driven plots.-- "CM: Canadian Review of Materials"<br><br>Like any great survival story for reluctant readers, this kicks off with high adrenaline in a chapter-one bear attack and keeps on climbing ...
