The Polar Bear is the new picture book by Jenni Desmond and it is the second book in the series on endangered animals. A brilliant idea to write non-fiction in a picture book. We have already written lyrical about The Blue Whale, about the polar bear we could do exactly the same. But it would be much nicer for you to read the book yourself.
It's sad when you look at the beautiful drawings to realize just how hard the polar bear's life is. For decades they were hunted and killed, now it is climate change that threatens them. This is very difficult to explain to your children. Why do we not take better care of the world and the animals? they ask.
The facts about the life of the polar bear, which are incorporated in the book, came together with the help of Geoff York, president of Polar Bears International. The organization has a beautiful website, well worth to take a closer look, at your convenience.
The Polar Bear is a magnificent book and the message is extremely important! We would love to preserve a beautiful world for our children and their children, with real animals in their natural habitat. This is truly a book to have, for it remains such a pleasure to read it to your kid(s) and look at the beautiful pictures together :)
