In this follow-up to Red Knit Cap Girl, the heroine responds to an SOS from a polar bear cub that has floated away from its family on an ice floe. The shimmery illustrations, which were created on plywood, are lovely, but without very much tension along the way, the success of her mission to bring the cub home feels too inevitable.
