Arctic Orphans.
Corners and spine chipped, with some loss to tail of spine, light spotting and pencil marking to contents page, illustrations all bright and clean; overall, good condition for a scarce children’s book.
Illustrated and written, respectively, by sisters Nancy and Bessie Parker. A vibrant and irresistibly playful children’s book, following the adventures of three anthropomorphic young polar bears cast adrift on an ice floe who, variously, hunt, take a voyage on the back of a whale, attend a school governed by a wise walrus, and encounter Santa Claus in the guise of a sea lion.
