At first sight you would think that a bear is the most dangerous and violent creature to inhabit it a forest. It’s the same concept with Cole. People see him and are frightened because of his mean, gruff looking appearance. In Touching Spirit Bear, page 7, chapter 1, the narrator states, “Still, no one ratted on Cole Matthews…
The setting of Brother Bear takes place right after the Ice Age in Alaska. Mountains, glaciers, forests, and plains cover the whole scenery. Whereas, after animals and people die, they take the place as spirits in the sky with the Northern Lights. Throughout the story, the mood tends to change.
