In a somber and serious first-person voice, a polar bear wanders through northern landscapes and across seasons in search of food and describes her survival practices. As summer ends, she moves to land--not her natural habitat--to patiently wait for the sea ice to return. In Moore's blue-saturated illustrations, ice, sky, and sea dominate. Back matter explains the effects of global climate change and includes an illustrated guide to fellow Arctic creatures.
