About the Book: 

On Monday, a boy finds a polar bear in his garden... only, this polar bear is so small he can fit in the palm of the boy's hand. "Are you lost, Little Bear?" the boy asks. "Can I help you?"

Day by day the bear grows - and so does their friendship - until the boy realises that it's time for the bear to go home.
