| From Booklist
Part of the Let’s-Read-and-Find-Out Science series, this title explores a year in the life of a polar bear, focusing on facts about the animal’s diet, hunting techniques, and habitat. Thomson also covers the impact of global warming on polar bears’ food sources, as a shrinking ice pack makes seal-hunting particularly challenging, and the book’s last two pages cover climate change in even more detail, including suggestions for ways that kids can reduce their carbon footprints. A certain amount of anthropomorphism enters the large color illustrations, particularly in the pictures of the polar bear cub that seems more like a small child, albeit with four legs. Still, this is an affecting introduction to polar bears and their threatened existence for young children. Grades 1-3. --Todd Morning |
