What is How to Ride a Polar Bear about?

Albie is not excited about visiting the museum with Mum, expecting dusty displays and boring old objects. But when the Arctic exhibition comes to life, he finds himself in a swirling snowstorm with Yura, a girl riding a huge polar bear. Alongside Yura and her bear, Tuka, Albie journeys across the icy wilderness, facing wolves, melting sea ice and other dangers as they try to reach Yura’s home. Can Albie help his new friends find safety?
