"A whimsical tale in which an old Eskimo-Inuit woman adopts an orphan polar bear cub that provides food for her as it grows up. When the men of the village grow jealous of the animal's superior hunting ability and decide to kill it, she sends it away. . . . Illustrated in muted pastel colors, the pictures capture this stark, yet beautiful, winter world" ("School Library Journal"). Full color.
A lonely old woman adopts, cares for, and raises a polar bear as if he were her own son in this retelling of a traditional Inuit folktale. When jealous villagers threaten the bear's life, he is forced to leave his home and his "mother." "The story gives a picture of motherly love toward an 'adopted child,' one the woman will love always. Heartwarming." ?School Library Journal
