The Last Bear

4.18 AVERAGE


"The Last Bear" is a beautifully written story about the friendship between a girl and a polar bear that already reads like a modern classic. It is about the relationship with nature and the effects of climate change, but also about loss and grief, and the responsibility that all of us have to do whatever little thing we can, even if the problems we face seem insurmountable.

(Thank you HarperCollins for sending me an ARC of this book.)

Qué pesar haber gastado mi dinero en un libro tan malo.
Afortunadamente le encontré en audiolibro, por eso lo pude acabar.

Mal libro
