REVIEW:

""When an inquisitive little polar bear investigates the shenanigans of silly seals and orcas, he finds himself separated from his Mama and LOST! This tale tells more than the consequences of a littlie disobeying its parent; its underlying message is one that can be explored by all ages - the impact of Global Warming, a very real and sensitive subject that necessitates action from everyone who cares about our precious planet.""
