Shortlisted for the Indie Book Awards 2025 and The Week Junior Book Awards 2024 April Wood has returned home from her adventure on Bear Island. But, over a year later, she can’t stop thinking about Bear. When April hears that a polar bear has been shot and injured in Svalbard, she’s convinced it’s her friend and persuades her dad to travel with her to the northernmost reaches of the Arctic. So begins an unforgettable journey across frozen tundra and icy glaciers. But along the way, she discovers much more than she bargained for – a tiny polar bear cub, desperately in need of her help. In freezing temperatures, April must navigate the dangerous Arctic terrain and face her deepest fears if she’s to save him. Beautifully illustrated by Levi Pinfold, Finding Bear is a stunning story of survival and a heartwarming tale of love that shows us how hope is born from the smallest of beginnings. ‘A beautifully written and illustrated story of determination, courage and hope’ The Sun ‘Magically inspiring’ Daily MailReviews

So, I felt like when I just saw his book, it would be just right for me.And when I was reading it, it changed my mind, to stop killing polar bears.To protect them in fact.So I felt emotional.

A huge shout out to Hannah Gold. The language she used is outstanding, and she has another bestseller yet! An astonishingly beautiful piece of work, and has anyone’s attention! And Levi Pinfolds pictures are the most talented illustrations I’ve probably ever seen. This book has everything!!!

This book was so inspirational for me as April went back to see bear wondering if he was still okay after he got shot. After April got there she was determined to get there and never gave up. She helped bear with his little cub too. The perseverance with this girl is amazing showing that even the smallest things you do make such a big difference. Highly recommend this book to anyone above the age of 8.
