Lost and Found

by JiWon Beck (Author)

Two strangers from different worlds meet unexpectedly and a special friendship is formed. Their mutual acts of kindness may be without words, but they speak in volumes. In the snowy Alaskan landscape, a young indigenous girl crosses paths with a weak and hungry polar bear. But rather than retreating in fear, she chooses to approach the bear with tenderness by giving him all that she has to offera blanket and fish from her morning excursion. And although the girls blanket is too smallthe gesture is large. After feeling nourished and refreshed, the two new friends head out to play and frolic in the snow. When a snowstorm hits, the bear has a chance to return the girls kindness and safely shepherds her home. Before each reunites with their parent they share one last embracecreating a lifelong memory of their unique bond born of mutual respect and open hearts.
