Description
Book Synopsis
In this Christmas adventure, Black Bear returns to Alaska to visit the homestead where she was born. On her way, she decides to visit the town of North Pole, Alaska so she can meet Santa. She arrives in North Pole just in time to catch a ride in Santa's sleigh. They arrive at Black Bear's old home on the Yukon as the snow begins to fall. The snow is so heavy that the reindeer can't fly. Why can't a lead sled dog help out? Black Bear and her sled dog friends return to the trail of the Yukon Quest to help Santa deliver the presents on time.
Review Quotes
Midwest Book Review Children's Bookwatch January, 2020
Part of the Black Bear Sled Dog series, Black Bear Saves Christmas: Another Black Bear Sled Dog Adventure is a rhyming picturebook about a hard-working, dark-furred Alaskan sled dog lead named Black Bear. Striking, colorfully painted illustrations bring to life this celebration of hard-working, four-footed sled dogs. "Don't worry, Santa, / even though I am old, / My fur coat is made for the / harsh bitter cold." A final page of dog sledding facts and special terms rounds out this excellent, read-aloud picturebook for storytime or bedtime. Also highly recommended are the previous two books in the series, "Black Bear Goes to Washington" and "Black Bear Goes to San Francisco".
