Finding Bear

The unmissable follow-up to the award-winning The Last Bear—perfect for fans of Rosanne Parry and Sara Pennypacker.

April Wood has returned home from her adventure on Bear Island. But even though it's been a whole year, she can’t stop thinking about Bear.

When April hears that a polar bear has been shot and injured in Svalbard, she’s convinced it’s her friend and persuades her dad to travel with her to the northernmost reaches of the Arctic. So begins an unforgettable journey across frozen tundra and icy glaciers.

But along the way, she discovers much more than she bargained for—a tiny polar bear cub, desperately in need of her help. In freezing temperatures, April must navigate the dangerous Arctic terrain and face her deepest fears if she’s to save him.

Beautifully illustrated by Levi Pinfold, Finding Bear is a stunning story of survival and a heartwarming tale of love that shows us how hope is born from the smallest of beginnings.

"Readers will be inspired by April’s resolve as she traverses the Arctic climate and ecosystems, and be highly entertained by this adventure story. This beautiful book will inspire readers to see the Arctic, to be moved by the power of love and the dancing northern lights... A worthy sequel with lush artwork and plenty of action." - School Library Journal
