There Will Be Bears, by Ryan Gebhart.
Tyson is determined to hunt an elk—even if it means sneaking his grandpa
out of a nursing home—in a debut novel sparked with dry wit and
wilderness adventure. Thirteen-year-old Tyson loves hanging out with his
roughneck Grandpa Gene, who's a lot more fun than Tyson's ex–best
friend, Brighton. These days, Bright just wants to be seen with the cool
jocks who make fun of Tyson's Taylor Swift obsession and dorky ways.
So
when Grandpa Gene has to move to a nursing home that can manage his
kidney disease, Tyson feels like he's losing his only friend. Not only
that, but Tyson was counting on Grandpa Gene to take him on his first
big hunt. So in defiance of Mom and Dad's strict orders, and despite
reports of a scary, stalking, man-eating grizzly named Sandy, the two
sneak off to the Grand Tetons. Yes, there will be action, like shooting
and dressing a six-hundred-pound elk. Is Tyson tough enough? There will
be heart-pounding suspense: Is Grandpa Gene too sick to handle the hunt,
miles away from help? And, oh yes, there will be bears...
