Mentally was always up to mischief. He was curious about everthing. One day he and his sister, Sosan went to visit their grandmother.

Menathey wandered around his grandmother's house. Looking at everything. He was still wandering around when he noticed a basket. "Look at the design. it is so beautiful." said Menathey. Touching the basket. "It was my aunt who made it", said his grandmother. "Do you know that we always use cedar roots?"

His grandmother looked at him. Menathey looked puzzled. "you and your sister will come with me tomorrow and go up to the woods. We will go and get cedar roots. Let us eat now. I will tell you about Cedar. We treat it with respect. We make many things from the cedar tree. It also has strong medicine."
 
"t蓹t膷 胃o 胃蓻qn蓹膷 h蓻wt蓹ms han蓹m 膷蓻m蓹m. qa蠂 ga tat岫� k史a蕯蓹mn蓹膷 ta soti膷. h蓻涩 yiqa拧蓻n k史at岫� hi蕯蓹m k史 p嫂膷u." nat蓹m 膷嫂膷y蓻. 茮蓻 mot 胃o tas蓻w k史 胃i膷蓻m.
"I like to dig cedar roots before it gets cold and freezes. Then i have lots of cedar roots for the winter. It is what I use to make baskets." said granny. It did not take them long to get to the forest.

It is a very misty morning. Menathey smells the sweet scent of the forest. He hears the birds singing. "I wonder what is behind the big trunks of the trees?" thinks Menathey. He went towards a grove of cedar trees. "This tree is really good. How straight. It must be at least 50 meters tall!" He looked towards the river. The fish were swimming upstream! So many!

Menathey hears something. He hides behind a big tree. It does not take long before Menathey peeks out from behind the tree. He sees a black bear with cubs. "hmmm, it is true! They are eating the fish!" whispered Menathey. "This is the best day of my life!"
   
"蠂史a蠂史a蕯a胃蓻蕯o涩膷 ga x史蓹蕯ux史 胃o p蓻pay蓻 蕯蓹m蓻mi拧, m蓻na胃蓻y" hot 拧蓻 膷嫂膷y蓻s. k史蕣tos蓹m m蓻na胃蓻y. j蓻qa n蓻 拧蓻 膷嫂膷y蓻s. p虛蓻胃ost蓹s 拧蓻 膷嫂膷y蓻s. "h蓻w膷 蠂a茮nome, 膷嫂膷y蓻!" "蠂a茮nom蓻膷 蕯ajut. x史a膷x史 s蓻saystom拧x史 q蓻y." nat蓹m 膷嫂膷y蓻.
"I told you not to go wandering by yourself, Menathey" said granny. Menathey turned around. His granny was standing behind him. He gave her a big hug. "I love you, granny!" "I love you too. Please do not scare me again." said granny.

They went back to granny's house. Menathey could hardly eat for talking so much. He told Sosan and his granny about everything that he saw in the woods. "I saw a black bear eating fish! I saw the biggest cedar tree! The trunk was so big that i think it would take 8 of my friends holding hands to circle the tree. I will call it the bear tree!

"just don't tell mom what i did in the woods. That i went wandering off by myself."
