The
creation of Japanese artist Naoko Stoop, this picture book was
inspired by an article she saw about a polar bear stranded on
a small piece of a breakaway iceberg.
When the central character of this story, a small child wearing
a large red hat and coat, discovers a little polar bear cub
floating offshore, she rescues it. But then the problem becomes
reuniting the cub with its mother.
It will take all the ingenuity Red Knit Cap Girl and her animal
friends can muster to figure out a way to get the polar bear
cub back to the land of ice and snow. Of course, it will be
a marvelous and exciting adventure which will end happily for
everyone concerned. |
