Polaris the Bear

Polaris is an adventurous story based on an extremely smart, yet clumsy, polar bear that is bred in captivity and whose curiosity goes beyond the walls of the zoo. When the answers given to him become short of his expectations, he decides to escape his perfect enclosed environment to explore the world by himself. Polaris will inspire young readers by prompting them to refuel life by learning something new every day. Another idea that is highly cultivated in this book is the importance of everlasting friends. It illustrates how a true friend will help you when the ground shakes under your feet (or paws), and will motivate you to fly higher when the world gives you wings. There are lessons in science and geography integrated with the story, and they are so surrounded by animation that children will learn while having fun. If you want to give a young reader one book to encourage his or her taste for reading, traveling and learning, Polaris is certainly the best choice.
