THE NORTH FENCE

However, the next day, you find a break in the north fence. It looks like a wild animal got into the farm. There are animal tracks everywhere. "Look at this," Hilda says. "There are bear tracks. It looks like the bear came in, then went right back out again. It's a big one, too. Maybe it will be back. What should we do?" (p. 24)
