TEACHER REVIEW:

"When an inquisitive little polar bear investigates the shenanigans of seals and orcas, he finds himself separated from Mama and LOST! This tale tells more than the consequences of disobedience; its underlying message is one of the impact of Global Warming, a very real and sensitive subject necessitating action from everyone who cares about our planet." Adrienne T. O'Connell, teacher, B.A., Grad. Dip. Ed., taught children from indigenous outback to multicultural city classrooms.

FIVE STAR REVIEW:

"Interesting and educational book, the pictures are wonderful!
Good book to have in school libraries for reference and read aloud, short, sweet and simple, it makes it easy for children to understand the author’s message.
Books like this make learning easy and fun!"
