Davy Crockett & the Bears

Davy Crockett was a great bear hunter & pioneer. He owned eight dogs that helped him hunt bears. He once killed one hundred & five bears in one year! Another time he almost froze to death while crossing a river. He figured how to stay warm by climbing up a tree & sliding back down. Sometimes he would find some scratches from a bear's claw on a tree. Then he would look at the scratches so he could find if the bear went up or down the tree. He also killed forty seven bears in one month. He was the greatest pioneer of all!

    I am very proud of you and all the hard work you do everyday, both for school and for chores. You are a very special boy and I thank God every day that He gave you to us. Our family wouldn't be complete without you.
    Love,
