Polar Bear, Arctic Hare: Poems of the Frozen North
by Eileen Spinelli (Author) Eugenie Fernandes (Illustrator)
The Arctic may be a cold and unforgiving place, but it teems with wildlife, from the humble orange-golden bumblebee to the majestic beluga whale. Eileen Spinelli's poems, spanning the four seasons, beautifully capture the splendor of these creatures, in the wild, icy landscape of the frozen North.
