(2) K-3 Illustrated by Ilya Spirin. This story follows two polar bear cubs in their first year of life. While the book doesn't directly discuss the effects of global warming, this is the underlying issue, as revealed in Guiberson's appended note. Spirin's expressive illustrations convey both the power and appeal of the bears, along with their habitat and the other animals and plants of the region. Websites.
