Little Polar Bear and the Submarine

(3) K-3 In his latest adventure, polar bear Lars rescues two smaller cubs from a submarine, with the promise that his parents will help them get home next spring. The story, with its nod to global warming, is child-friendly, with light suspense. The personified animals are affectionately drawn, and the submarine includes realistic details. Lars's bravado, fears, and need for help are handled well.
