Lars Saves the Day — Hans de Beer

In the village where Lars lives, the animals have always had enough fish to eat and to share. But one day, the seals come up from the water with empty flippers: the sea has nothing to offer but ice floes. Lars realizes that he must do something or everyone will starve. So the little cub takes a big risk: he goes to investigate the humans who live nearby. Filled with drama and suspense, this gripping tale also teaches children a simple lesson about ecology and living in harmony with our animal friends.
