Author & Illustrators
This enchanting story is based on a traditional story from the Inuit people. An old woman finds a polar bear cub all alone in the ice and snow. The woman takes the bear home and raises him as if he is her son, caring for him and protecting him. We really enjoyed the wonderful artwork of the illustrations, setting the warmth of the woman’s affections for the cub against the vastness of the icy polar landscape.
