Bear Boy
In the outskirts of the Bronx in 1930s New York, the Mitwisser
clan are German refugees who survive at the whim of their vagabond
benefactor, James A'Bair. James is heir to the fortune amassed by
his father, the author of a wildly popular series of children's
books called The Bear Boy.
Into their chaotic household comes Rose Meadows, orphaned at the
age of eighteen. Employed as an assistant to the eccentric
Professor Mitwisser, Rose's position within the family is
precarious, especially when the arrival of James threatens the
fragile balance of the household.
