'There was once a bear, a great, white bear - Queen of Beasts. But over the years the ice disappeared, slipping away like sand through an hourglass. Slowly, slowly, one by one, the other animals moved on.'

The great bear has no choice but to leave her snowy realm to search for food, friends and a new home.

She soon discovers a world that is growing hotter whilst hearts grow colder - until one small act of kindness changes everything.

The Bear in the Stars is a heartwarming and inspiring story about the power of kindness.

A beautiful and inspirational tale of hope and change, perfect for younger readers.
