Why read it?

1 author picked The Last Bear as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love books that show a bond between humans and animals. Especially well-researched books. And this story certainly captures it all with a sweet encounter between a lonely polar bear and a girl. Between the environmental tidbits, the plight of polar bears, and also the unique storyline, this book should be on everyone’s radar. 

From Terry's list on featuring an adventurous journey.
