An
orphaned polar bear struggles to find food.
Without a mother to feed her, this young polar bear must fend for
herself against other bears that are bigger and stronger. And food is hard to find: due to rising
global temperatures. This book is based on a true story of an orphaned polar
bear.
It has a unique way of teaching about
environmental changes through a touching story of an orphaned polar cub. This book would be a great introduction in
teaching a unit on global warming and the effects it has on the animals.
