Age range 3 to 6

A boy tries to help a hungry polar bear stranded in his island village but needs his grandfather's help to get the bear home.

Follow the funny story of a boy who tries to help the unexpected arrival to his small island town. One day, Henry wakes up and gets ready for sleigh rides in the snow, but he encounters a polar bear instead. It's up to Henry and his grandpa to sneak the polar bear off the remote island. Will the polar bear make it back to the North Pole?

'The bright cartoon illustrations, appearing in small vignettes as well as single- and double-page spreads and on the endpapers, flesh out the story with imaginative, often hilarious details...Fun-filled, delightful, and inventive.' - Kirkus Reviews

Maria Kristjansdottir recently graduated with an MA in Children's Book Illustration from the Cambridge School of Art. Growing up in Iceland, she enjoyed being active, spending summers running wild, and making up stories at her grandparent's house in the countryside on the west coast of Iceland. She also used every opportunity to doodle and draw on anything she could find. Illustrating and making children's books is a terrific way of combining her need to draw and her love of making stories.
