Description

In this lyrical retelling of an Inuit folktale by Dawn Casey, a lonely old woman adopts a polar bear cub with no mother of his own. Amanda Hall's luminous artwork celebrates the radiant snow lands of the north, and the warmth of the relationship between a human being and a wild animal. With tender themes of loving and letting go, and the need to honor the wild, Little Bear will touch the heart of young readers.
