 Polar Bears in action May 21, 2009

Polar bears and the Arctic was a great book. I learned many interesting facts about polar bears. Polar bears live in the Arctic, near the North Pole. The Arctic is in the Arctic Circle. The Arctic Circle covers an area about as large as North America, Canada, Russia, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland and almost all of Greenland are in the Arctic Circle.
The planet is getting warmer because of the burning of coal and oil as fuel. We use fuel in cars, houses, and factories every day. These fuels are melting the ice in Antarctica which is making the polar bears die. The government has a list of animals that are endangered and many people have asked that polar bears be placed on the endangered species list.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read about polar bears. They should read this book because it has a lot of facts about polar bears. There were also pictures of polar bears. One picture is a polar bear looking at the sky. There are other pictures of polar bears eating, drinking and pictures of baby cubs.

On the 'Arctic Circle' map part of Russia (page 17) is mislabeled as 'Iceland'. On this map you can find Iceland on page 16, between Greenland and UK. I think that it is important for a research guide. I didn't mean to write the book review though... Great book!

This research guide was purchased for my classroom. In the first week I had it available, six students were on the waiting list to check it out. Once again Mr. and Mrs. Osborne have provided a teacher/student friendly support book for a Magic Tree House book.
