Summary

Kenai, a young Native American boy who wants to be a man, sets out to take revenge after his older brother is killed by a mother bear protecting her cubs. When Kenai finds himself magically transformed into the creature he hates most, a bear, he must literally walk in another's footsteps while learning some life lessons. In his quest to return to human form, he is befriended by a talkative bear cub, aided by encounters with two dumb Canadian moose siblings, and forced to flee from his remaining older brother, who is hunting Kenai the bear on his own mission of revenge and honor.
