review 1: This is an adorable book -- I mean, a panda bear AND a polar bear. What more do you want?The action takes place in an imaginary land where Spring meets Winter. Spring and Winter are separated by a huge cliff. So are the panda and the polar bear. Until one curious polar bear finds himself at the bottom of the cliff. What follows is a celebration of differences and sameness and bear ingenuity and true friendship.
review 2: This is a clever story about two bears who live next to each other in a zoo. A polar bear cub falls from his frozen tundra into the wet, rich exhibit of a panda bear. The polar bear's white fur is muddied in just the right places, and the resident panda cub mistakes him for another panda. The two pal around together until the polar bear
... more's muddy patches wear off, and by then the bear cubs have become good friends.The story was clever and adorable and much more creative than I imagined it would be when my 2-year-old first showed it to me at the library. And the water color illustrations are just as lovely as the story itself. less
