The Polar Bear Explorers' Club Series

by ,
(94 reviews)

Wander through a gorgeously imaginative middle grade illustrated fantasy adventure combining the best of Peter Pan, Lemony Snicket, Northern Lights and Alice in Wonderland with this beautiful series for ages 8+. 

Get ready to travel to the iciest of mountains and to set sail across faraway seas with this fun, adventurous and absolutely spellbinding series about great feats, each book reading as a standalone story with its own set of unique and courageous characters. 

You may trek across the snowy Icelands and come face-to-face with frost fairies, snow queens, outlaw hideouts, unicorns, pygmy dinosaurs and carnivorous cabbages; embark on a journey to face chomping pumpkin patches, vampire trolls, poisonous rabbits, outraged vultures and deranged broomsticks; or you can lead an expedition through treacherous waters, filled with gremlins. Incredible world-building throughout these books fill every page with magic, wonder and unforgettable beauty.

This amazing series written by Alex Bell and illustrated by Tomislav Tomic will of course capture readers who love Harry Potter, Nevermoor, The Land of Roar and other magical realism stories.
