Antarctica Fiction

A story about a rare snowman and his dilemmas of being made up of sweet lemon ice. Between dodging Arctic nutcrackers and being pursued by a fire tiger, Gelo’s primary focus is to not melt, be seen, or be eaten. It’s a cold world. Especially as a snowman.

Every Saturday, Millie spends the day at her grandmother's house. There are no toys and no TV, but it's still the best part of her week. You see, grandma is a fairy! With a twirl of her magic spoon, she sends Millie to wherever she wants to go!

En cuanto el sol empieza a ponerse, los animales del ártico se preparan para el oscuro y frío invierno. Tuktuk, el lemino, está casi listo para pasar la larga noche invernal - todo lo que él necesita es pelaje caliente para revestir su nido. Cuando una bota kamik afelpada resbala fuera del trineo de un conductor Inuit, ¡TukTuk está de suerte! Pero, mientras la arrastra hacia su hogar, Putak el oso polar, Aput la zorra del ártico, y Masak la Caribú obvservan el premio de este pequeño lemino y se lo quieren quitar.

Nanu, a lonely polar bear, searches for dinner. The ice is melting, and the animals are disappearing! During his search, he makes an unlikely friend with Toklo, a silly beluga whale! The friends work together with a native girl, Ahnah, as they figure out how everyone can work together to help Save the Arctic! This time, Bethany Stahl's interactive book immerses children in a fun and unique journey.

As the sun begins to set, arctic animals scurry to prepare for six months of darkness and cold. Tuktuk the collared lemming is almost ready for the long winter night - all he needs is warm fur to line his nest. When one furry kamik (boot) slips off an Inuit driver's sled, Tuktuk is in luck! But as he drags it home, Putak the polar bear, Aput the arctic fox, and Masak the caribou eye this little lemming's prize and want it for their own. Can Tuktuk outwit the other animals and convince them that one furry kamik is no good for anyone bigger than a lemming?

This arctic adaptation of "This Is the House That Jack Built" follows polar bears, walruses, seals, narwhals, and beluga whales as they chase each other around "the ice that floats in the Arctic waters". Not only is the rhythmic, cumulative prose good for early learners; it is a pure delight to listen to. The "For Creative Minds" section helps children learn how these animals live in the cold, icy arctic region.

Una llamada de auxilio, una barca en problemas en el cabo de Hornos, tres hombres en una misión de salvamento, la historia de los pioneros en el territorio más hostil del planeta: un desierto eterno de hielo y nieve. De toda la obra de Francisco Coloane, Los conquistadores de la Antártica es tal vez la que mejor resume su gran obsesión literaria: el enfrentamiento del hombre con su entorno.

Únete a la diversión de los animales del ártico mientras se persiguen el uno al otro alrededor "del hielo que flota en las aguas árticas" ¿Qué pasa cuando se interrumpe y se hecha a perder esta diversión?
