Seller's Description:
Jeanette Winter color illustrations. As New in As New jacket. Book CONDITION: What makes this book "As NEW? "-pale "wrinkle" top DJ edge and remainder mark bottom edges at spine. UNREAD, but not quite perfect, 2016 Beach Lane Books hardcover (pictorial boards) & dust jacket (in mylar cover), first edition, first printing. Adorable color illustrations by the Author. CONTENT: Experience Arctic chills and warm hugs in this nonfiction picture book about a loving polar bear family from acclaimed author-illustrator Jeanette Winter. At the top of the world, Nanuk the ice bear hunts for food, meets a mate, and hibernates through the winter with her newborn cubs. When spring arrives, Nanuk teaches her beloved cubs how to hunt and swim and survive in the arctic. This new picture book by acclaimed author-illustrator Jeanette Winter is a stunning portrait of a loving polar bear family with a subtle environmental message. "The story of a femalepolar bear provides an overview of the species' life cycle and includes themention of environmental changes that threaten their existence. Clear, softillustrations in Winter's characteristic style accompany her straightforwardtext. She starts with several pages that describe the Arctic landscape, offering a sense of place and placement. Similarly simple sentences coverfeeding, mating ("a dance of courtship"), and the raising of cubs. Atouch of sentiment appears in the forlorn expression on Nanuk's face when heryoung are old enough to strike out on their own, but overall both narrative and pictures focus on conveying an accurate picture of typical experiences and behaviors. Illustrations are centered on each page, bordered in white, while behind them a rising sea changes color and height in successive spreads, eventually engulfing the white space entirely. In the final pages the author mentions the changes that have been implied throughout by this changing background. Although she softens the grim prospect by ending with the positive future envisioned in Nanuk's dreams, the reality, however lightly limned, ultimately gives the story a melancholy tone."
