Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Join Mika, a cute little bear on secret quest to avoid hibernation so that she can see the beauty of the Northern Lights for herself! For fans of classics like Are You My Mother? and The Berenstain Bears.
Mika is a little bear who loves to run and play all over the forest, but she soon learns that winter is on its way, and she is supposed to spend these long, cold months hibernating with her mother and father. When the Old Owl tells Mika about the Northern Lights that appear every winter, she can't stand the thought of missing something so beautiful, and so she sets out on a secret, snowy adventure to find them!
The perfect christmas gift for new parents this season, especially those looking for a bear book with a loveable character.
