Polar

From Dan Kainen, the creative mastermind behind Safari (500K copies sold in print) and Ocean (270K copies sold in print), a journey to the ends of the earth, between two covers—with Photicular moving images of the animal life and amazing landscapes of the North and South Poles.

The eight remarkable images include: a trio of adorable, toddling Adélie penguins; two polar bear cubs playing with their mother; a lumbering walrus making its way across the ice; a snowy owl hovering in the sky, searching for prey; a beluga whale breaching the cold water of the Arctic Ocean; a Svalbard reindeer nibbling at tufts of summertime grass; a pack of sled dogs racing towards you; and the Aurora Borealis glowing in the northern sky.

The text writing, Carol Kaufmann, brings these exotic regions and their inhabitants to life, drawing attention to the extremes of life at the poles, and to the endangered wildlife that calls this icy land home.
