Lusa: “We can do it! It’s just a matter of time...” Lusa has come a long way since her cubhood. She used to live in captivity, as a bear with no freedom, but now, she is wild and free.

She and her friends are nervous about leaving each other to find new homes—which is something they must do—and their final destination holds many secrets. How will Lusa, along with Toklo, Kallik, and Ujurak, face the future?

Can Lusa convince her friends to travel together...into the unknown territory ahead? Read this book to find out! Toklo: “Nothing will ever be the way it was before. But how can I abandon my friends?” Toklo is a grizzly bear cub who has always had a sad life.

He has been grieving for them ever since...but then, he met Lusa, Ujurak, and Kallik, who became his traveling companions. As endless moons of traveling spread out in front of them, Toklo gets increasingly worried. How will four cubs go for that much distance, just to find their homes? And to make matters worse, the two-legged animals who took away his mother have been prowling around more than usual...and their next target might be Toklo and his friends. The bears don’t know if they can keep going in these conditions. What will they do? Read this book to find out! Kallik: “My friends are my priority. I must help them on their quest...or die trying.

Traveling with Lusa, Toklo, and Ujurak, who are black bears and grizzlies, is something no other polar bear would do...but Kallik is not the type to abandon her friends. As the journey gets harder, the bears must have what it takes to survive in the cold, arctic wilderness. She can do it—what about her friends, though?

On the unforgiving Arctic Ice . . .
United once again, Toklo, Lusa, Kallik, and Ujurak continue across the ice. Conditions are harsh and especially treacherous for the black bear and grizzly bears who are not used to the brutal cold, never-ending snow, and limited food. But the bears are certain now that they're on the right course, and with the stars still guiding them, they push forward.
When they reach land at last, the group is overjoyed, but something is not right. The bears who live here are ill. What's wrong with them? What can the foursome do to help? Is aiding these strangers the ultimate goal of their quest? Ujurak just might hold the key to their mission in his paws, yet it's Lusa the new bears are especially interested in.
Three young cubs, each from different backgrounds, and their mysterious shape-shifting companion have grown up together in their long and dangerous journey to save the wild. Now, when their task appears more difficult than ever, the bears must make a critical decision . . . and for one bear the path ends here.
