Hannah Gold not only spreads awareness about animal population but also conveys a message that the people who don't feel like they fit in; have something unique in themselves. Gold adds such words to the paragraphs which gives you a feeling of being there at the moment. 'The Last Bear', Hannah Gold's best selling book is a heart-warming story about an eleven year old girl and a big cuddly Polar bear. Through the pages of 'The Last Bear', I experienced many emotions. Some parts made me really happy, some made me a little nervous and some made me cry. I would like to appreciate Levi Pinfold the illustrator of 'The Last Bear' and many other books here. Levi's beautiful drawings make the book even more interesting. I highly recommend this book to everyone. It's a very inspirational and motivational novel. Looking forward to reading more stories from Hannah Gold and I wish someone would produce movies based on her spectacular and touching books.

Nice story
A lovely story, bought for my then 8 year old and she enjoyed reading it. (Her reading age is roughly 11 but Iโd say ages 9 and up would be fine with it) Itโs well written and flows well and was challenging in a good way (I.e. some new words to learn but not too many to ruin it).

One of the BEST children's books I have ever read!
I read this book to be able to recommend to other home educating families and it is absolutely stunning! It tells the story of April, an 11 year old girl, struggling to find herself after the death of her mother. She moves to the Arctic with her dad and discovers a polar bear. Their friendship is simply stunning and the bear helps April to process grief and pulls her out of the loneliness she has been experiencing. The descriptions of the artic landscape is stunning and the relationship between April and Bear had me in tears many times! Hannah Gold is an amazing author! This book is definitely for older children that can manage the themes around death of a parent, loss, grief etc. Great for any children concerned about the environment as this book talks a lot about the melting polar ice caps and how that is affecting polar bears. Perfect for eco warriors! Simply stunning and one of the best children's books I have EVER read.
