On the ice, the wind is blowing gently. Big Bear has stopped running. How wonderful it is to be still ...to close his eyes ...to dream! But the stillness is broken when Big Bear hears a cry and opens his eyes to see a child tumbling from the sky. Carl Norac's delicately woven tale of the touching friendship between a young boy and a solitary polar bear is accompanied by beautiful, evocative illustrations by Kristin Oftedal.
