About The Book
All three books about the charming adventures of Duane the polar bear and his arctic animal friends that “wonderfully follow in the tradition of A. A. Milne’s Winnie the Pooh stories” (Booklist on The Very, Very Far North, starred review) are now available together in one paperback boxed set!
In the Very, Very Far North, past the Cold, Cold Ocean and just below the hill that looks like a baby whale, you’ll find Duane and his friends.
Duane is a sweet and curious young bear who makes friends with everyone he meets—whether they’re bossy, like Major Puff the puffin, or a bit vain, like Handsome the musk ox, or very, very shy, like Boo the caribou. For these arctic friends, every day is a new adventure!
This delightful paperback boxed set includes:
The Very, Very Far North
Just Beyond the Very, Very Far North
An Even Farther Very, Very Far North
