Description
It's a big day for the little polar bear Lars! His father takes him hunting for the very first time, and that night he is so tired from all his lessons that he falls fast asleep. He sleeps so soundly that he doesn't hear the ice crack, doesn't feel himself slowly drift away from his father and the North Pole - he doesn't realize that his adventures have just begun.
Critic Reviews

"a fanciful journey"-- "Publishers Weekly"
--Dwight Garner "The New York Times"
"Readers will cheer when Lars is reunited with his father, but will also look forward to traveling with their new friend again in his other adventures."-- "Celebrate Picture Books Blog"
"This is an endearing picture book, with soft-colored illustrations that help give a very cold place a warm feel."-- "Children's Literature Reviews"
