Bookroo's summary
A polar bear with an untied shoe needs help, but every animal he approaches runs away in fear. As he wonders what to do, two brave birds step in with unexpected advice. Will their quirky solution solve his problem? This charming tale flips expectations and delivers a delightful twist on asking for help.
From the publisher
A lumbering little polar bear has one shoe untied, and he needs some help! Sadly for him, though, the other animals are all too scared of him- the lemmings, rabbits, and seals all run away as he approaches them for assistance. What’s Bear going to do? Luckily, two plucky birds are more than happy to help out and offer advice – though probably not quite in the way that readers anticipate. In this sweet and funny book about asking for help (and receiving it), expectations are flipped in a simple but clever way.
