“Finding Bear” is a children’s adventure book by Hannah Gold and illustrated by Levi Pinfold, a sequel to “The Last Bear,” following April Wood as she travels back to the Arctic to help a baby polar bear cub, exploring themes of survival, love, hope, and climate change as she navigates dangers and her complicated feelings about her dad’s new girlfriend.
Lots of our literacy will be based around the book this term.
