This is a unilingual story with hand-drawn illustrations and Dene text. A Dene man goes hunting and shoots bear cubs. The bear’s mother sees this and is very angry. She comes after the man, but he puts a stick in her mouth so she cannot close her jaw. She was stuck, and he got away safely. There is a quiz in Dene for students to complete once they have read the story. The narrative begins:

Yahnı̨́ı̨ ts’ę́ sah gode góı̨lé redı, Saoyu k’e, beyaa nákee yé hé k’énaɂá, jı́ı yágıdé.
