"Follow the photographic journey of orphaned polar bear Kali (pronounced Cully) as he is rescued and whisked away to the Inupiat village of Kali (Point Lay in English). Villagers care for him until a plane flies him to the Alaska Zoo in Anchorage. There, he grows and learns skills from zookeepers filling in for his mother. Since young cubs need companionship, animal experts find a friend for Kali, Luna, a female polar bear, at the Buffalo Zoo in New York"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I wouldn't read this book again because it does not provide any natural context for polar bear, but rather only shows them through the lens of a rescue situation, and all the animals in the book are animals held in captivity. The author never explains why the bear couldn't be released back into the wild and it actually reads as much like a kidnapping as it does a rescue.
While the overall design and publication of this book were adequate, the story overall did not sit well with me. ( )
