Because You Are My Friend

Cotton-candy sweet, it’s probably best suited to a public library that serves the pre-school crowd.  It tells the story of a young polar bear, used to spending all his time with Mom, who is trying to make a new friend.  Things don’t work out with the seagull, the seal, the penguins, or the walrus, but when he takes a break from his search, another young polar bear comes along, and the two have fun together.  The pink and white cover, with the i in the title dotted with a heart, and the fuzzy bears will appeal to young girls.
