A majestic polar bear heads out on a mysterious walk in a dazzling,
playful collaboration from an exciting pair of picture-book creators.

animals and even a human . . . where is he going? What does he want?
Acclaimed author Mac Barnett's narration deftly balances suspense and
emotion, as well as poignant, subtle themes, compelling us to follow the

intriguing, this engaging picture book will have readers pondering the
answer to its final question long after the polar bear has continued on
his way.
