The graphic novel received a 3.5 rating from Ian Keogh:

Mel and her younger brother Kevin are having a woodland lodge holiday with their grandfather, and as always Georgia Ball adapting from the novels of Lauren Tarshis ensures they’re characters to care about. Unlike other incidents in the series, the attack of the grizzlies is a relatively compact experience, akin to an earlier story about shark attacks, so more time is spent on constructing the personal circumstances and Mel’s state of mind. Camping in Glacier National Park is an annual family tradition, except in 1967 it’s the summer after Mel’s mother died, and the time taken off work afterwards by her father means he’s also absent. Mel’s carrying extra guilt because the crash that killed her mother occurred after she’d pleaded with her mother to drive her to a friend’s house for a sleepover following a snowstorm.
