Polar bear is rather lonely. Snow animals meant to keep him company melt away at the end of the day. And they can’t swim and splash or play hide-and-seek like a real friend can. A real friend . . . that’s just what he needs! And Jane Cabrera’s lush, broad style sets the pitch-perfect stage for this wintery tale.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 2-A charming picture book about a little polar bear's search for a friend. Although he and a snow cloud love one another, the cub wants someone with whom he can play hide-and-seek or go swimming. The cloud tries to help by making his snow fall down into the shapes of various animals, but each of the snow creatures stands still without playing and melts away by the next day. One morning, the cub comes across what he thinks is a polar bear made of snow. To his amazement, the animal sneezes. The two bears play together with snowflakes provided by their friend the cloud. The simple text is enhanced by the full-page illustrations across spreads. The many different shades of blue, green, and purple of the ice and snow make a wonderful backdrop for the occasional orange fish and bold yellow-orange sky. The visible brush strokes add depth and texture to the art. Foil snowflakes on the cover and spine are a sparkly touch. A nice choice for a winter storytime.
