Description
If you've ever considered the absurdity of sleeping on the ground in a place where bears live, pooping in a bag on a glacier, or trying to teach someone you love a sport that scares them to the point of loudly threatening to kill you in front of strangers, Bears Don't Care About Your Problems will make you laugh. Author and creator of Semi-Rad, Brendan Leonard is part Dave Barry, part Gary Larson, and 100 percent twisted in his own fresh way. The Semi-Rad perspective has become the funny, introspective voice of outdoor Everyman and Everywoman adventurers.

In Bears Don't Care About Your Problems...Outside's Semi-Rad columnist Brendan Leonard remarks on the sometimes-absurd moments that punctuate an adventure-filled life. His sharp drawings and commentary touch on topics like camping in bear territory, pooping in a bag, and running hundreds of miles just because you can.--Outside
Inspiring everyday folks who dream big, but maybe can't always go big is kind of Leonard's thing.... [Bears Don't Care About Your Problems] serves as a sort of gut-busting greatest hits from the annals of Semi-Rad, complete with fresh illustrations and a foreword written by AJ's own Steve Casimiro.--Shawnte Salabert "Adventure Journal "
Fully absorbing, inherently fascinating, and laugh out loud funny.--Midwest Book Review
[Bears Don't Care About Your Problems] is indeed focused on the outdoor lifestyle, but I think even if you're more indoorsy, there's something universal here.--Ryan Warner "Colorado Matters "
Prepare to relate and laugh your ass off even as Leonard, in his understated way, gives you the necessary tools to pursue a successful outdoor life.... Leonard's stories are much more than just a laugh or step-by-step guide on lightening the weight in your backpack. Bears Don't Care About Your Problems draws insights on human nature, character, and perspective.--Zoe Leibovitch "Climbing Magazine "
