Just Like Me

When Polar Bear wanders out onto the ice to play, she spots a rather strange looking bear. Patchy and blotchy, and shivering cold, this bear looks oh so lost among the freezing ice!

She is the same size as little Polar Bear, furry like Polar Bear, and yet she's also completely different.

Well, then, thinks Polar Bear, what a perfect recipe for fun and friendship - and so begins their incredibly cute adventure!

An excerpt from the story

Mama! I made a new friend today and she's unlike me in every way.

I wanted to share my lunch with her, but it's not fish that she prefers!

Then I wanted to roll in the snow, but she said, "Hmm, it's cold - I don't know."

And when she growls, you will agree, she really doesn't sound at all like me. Can two bears so different be friends and play? Wait! Listen to what else she did today.

Mama, you should see how my new friend climbs trees. She has an extra toe to snap bamboos with ease.

And when we talked, we just couldn't stop, and she didn't care that I couldn't reach the treetop.

She's not like me but we're also the same. We can roll and growl, hunt and play games.

Mama, I made a friend with a good heart,

And, that mama, is my favourite part!
