The Bears of Blue River

The Bears of Blue River

"The Bears of Blue River," written by Charles Major, takes place in 19th century rural Indiana. "Little Balser," the main character in the book, was a very brave young man who had many exciting (and sometimes frightening) encounters with bears and other wildlife. A fearless hunter, Little Balser dreamed of the day he would have his own gun. As "The Bears of Blue River" describes, his dream did eventually come true. This book may not be considered politically correct by some because Little Balser does shoot bears. It is a correct (though quite possibly exaggerated) description of what life was like in those days, however. "The Bears of Blue River" is of particular interest to people of Shelbyville, Indiana. The north end of the town circle in Shelbyville features a statue of Little Balser holding up the two bear cubs that he captured and raised. Every summer Shelbyville, Indiana holds a celebration honoring "The Bears of Blue River." The celebration consists of a parade and entertainment to remember Shelbyville, Indiana and how it once was in the past. In addition to the wonderful history involved, "The Bears of Blue River" will keep those who love nature and tales of early pioneer life on the edge of their seats as they read the exciting experiences of "Little Balser."
