If Polar Bears Disappeared by Lily Williams

informative reflective tense medium-paced

5.0

This beautifully illustrated picture book describes how melting sea ice, caused by climate change, is endangering the polar bear population of the Arctic, and further explains the domino affect this will have on the ecosystem. To many, polar bears in the Arctic seem far away and disconnected from the rest of the world, but this book clearly shows how ecosystems affect each other, and how the results of climate change are already spreading ever more south from the Arctic. I also love the diversity in this book - Indigenous Alaskans and a left-handed young black scientist!
