Prowling the frozen reaches of the far northern corners of Russia, Canada, and Alaska, the Arctic polar bear is the world's largest land predator and one of the most difficult to track of all wild creatures. With spectacular photographs and an engaging, thoroughly researched text, Polar Bear follows its subject from rambunctious, protected cub to robust, formidable adult. Including close-ups of play and fighting rituals, swimming shots, luminous landscape images, and rarely seen photos of mothers at their dens, this elegant, informative book pays tribute to a fascinating and powerful survivor of one of the planet's harshest environments.

It's a spring morning in the Arctic. A hungry female polar bear emerges from her den after a winter spent sleeping under the snow. Her two young cubs follow her into their icy new world. The tiny bears have lots to learn. When they get to the ocean, their mother will show them how to swim and hunt for food. Filled with information perfectly suited to the abilities and interests of its primary-grade audience, this colorful, fact-filled book gives readers a chance not only to learn all about polar bears and how their bodies are adapted to the extreme cold, but also to develop their powers of observation and critical thinking. Built-in activities such as investigating and measuring the size of a polar bear?s paw will give readers a chance to gain, insights beyond the facts and figures.
