Book
Little Bear : an Inuit folktale / retold by Dawn Casey ; illustrated by Amanda Hall ; foreword by Kelly Berthelsen.
"Little Bear is a lyrical retelling of an Inuit folktale, written by award-winning author Dawn Casey and radiantly illustrated by award-winning artist Amanda Hall. When a lonely old woman finds a polar bear cub with no mother of his own, she adopts him, and cares for him as he grows. The bear cub rides in her hood and sleeps by her side. But when he is wounded by hunters from another village, the old woman begins to understand that bears belong in the wild. A tender story of loving and learning to let go, Little Bear celebrates the relationship between a human being and a wild animal and will touch the hearts of readers young and old"-- Provided by publisher.
