ICE BEAR (HB)

A magical tale set in stunning icy Arctic landscapes in the beginning of time which reminds us of our duty to take care of the world's wild creatures. One of two polar bear cubs is stolen away from his mother by a trickster raven and, given human form, is raised by hunters as their child. As the years pass, the mother bear never forgets her second cub and pines for what she has lost to humans. One day when he wanders far from home, he is found by his bear-twin and must choose between his two families. Jackie Morris's glorious illustrations and lyrical text are perfectly matched by the deluxe production values of this large format hardback book.
