From the creators of the bestselling THE CHRISTMAS WISH comes a new wintry tale, in which brave Anja rescues a baby polar bear!
Another winter has come for Anja! She, her cousin Erik, and her new puppy, Birki, are excited to explore the snow on their dogsled and make their way to the Christmas party.
But on their journey, a great blizzard strands the travelers, and a lost baby polar bear comes to their tent looking for help! Can Anja and her friends help the little bear find his mother?
Husband-and-wife team Lori Evert and Per Breiehagen bring us back to their classic Nordic world in a story illustrated with extraordinary photographs and starring their daughter, Anja.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In an addition to the Wish series, Evert delivers another magical tale featuring talking animals in an enchanting natural world. Anja a girl who lives in a snow-covered Nordic land takes a journey with her cousin Erik, in a dogsled led by huskies Birki and Bria. Evert and Breiehagen, a married team, feature Breiehagen's photographs of Anja (their daughter) and Erik, both clothed in traditional red and blue knits. After becoming lost in a snowstorm, they meet a lost polar bear named Tiny. Traveling across icy fjords in search of Tiny's mother, they encounter another polar bear friend, who leads them to a "shimmering ice castle." If it seems dreamlike, it's a safe bet ("Early Christmas morning, Anja was lying in bed thinking about her remarkable dream") or is it? Ages 3 7.
