A young polar bear named Kallik and her brother, Taqqiq, have always dreamed of exploring the outside world. Their mother tells them great stories about it—and both of them are ready to see the vast land, filled with snow and ice. Until now, they have never been outside their cozy den, where both of them are safe from danger. But how will the cubs get to explore if they’re always kept away from the outdoor world by the den’s boundary? One day, Kallik and Taqqiq decide to sneak out. They both think it’s exciting at first—but their adventure holds more danger than any bear could have thought. Soon, the cubs find themselves in a HUGE puddle of trouble! How will they explain it to their mother? Then, they meet another bear, who might just help them get out of this mess...but Kallik doesn’t know if she can trust the strange bear. And when she’s suddenly separated from her brother, she must make a decision; go back home to her mother, but without Taqqiq by her side? Or go forward, into unknown territory? What will she do? Read this book to find out!

Polar bear cub Kallik and her brother, Taqqiq, live in a cozy den nestled into the side of a snowy hill. Their mother, Nisa, tells them stories of the great world beyond their little den: stories of other bears, endless snow, and flecks of ice in the sky called stars. Kallik and Taqqiq can't wait to explore everything, though Nisa says they're still too little to venture out. But when the two cubs sneak out one day, they discover some startling new things about life in the wild and make a new friend—whose life may be in danger!
