In Michelson 's novel "Touching the Spirit Bear", Cole is a 14 - year - old boy from Minneapolis. He is very angry, angry, fierce and violent boy, he seems to be unable to control his anger. He may be very angry and impatient, but at the end of the book he is honest, strong, introspective and diligent. What is the reason for the anger of the call?

The idea of ​​moving spiritual bears comes from various directions. My own past was a highly dangerous student who grew overseas and had never been trained until fourth grade.

I was walking 20 feet on the coastline even on a real Soul Bear. What a wonderful sight. I met the spiritual leader of indigenous people in British Columbia and taught me how to work with young people in his village. My research took me to British Columbia and Alaska, where a real eviction took place. Furthermore, one of my friends is a lawyer.

In the traditional judicial system, people commit crimes, are sent to prisons and hospitals, and are also asked to do community service. The purpose of this system is to prevent that person from committing another crime by circumventing the situation that might be caused by the choice of crime. The only point is punishment
