“Get away from that bear,” the father cried. “But she is my mother too,” the boy pleaded.
When there is a new speaker, start a new line.

In pairs, act in role as the characters, using dialogue to create a conversation between them.
We have a deep bond...
You are our brother...
You seem familiar...
Get away from that bear...
Stay back!...
Come to me, son...
The boy
