'If Parjiter can do it, then so can I!' declares Bridgeforth Bear, on his spontaneous decision to embark upon a monumental journey-all the way from the Arctic to the Antarctic-to visit his great friend, Parjiter Penguin. Parjiter had, of course, made the reverse trip the previous year, as chronicled in Parjiter Penguin's Amazing Arctic Adventure. On arrival in the Antarctic, Bridgeforth discovers that Parjiter's entire penguin colony is on the brink of starvation, due to a calamitous shortage of their vital food supply-krill. The two friends resolve to find the cause of this crisis-but just as the polar bear and penguin are about to begin their mission, they are confronted by an imposing looking husky, named Hershel, who, unexpectedly, offers the welcome assistance of his dog sled team. And so, the unlikeliest of companions-a polar bear, a penguin, and a team of Siberian huskies-set off on an incredible adventure together. During the course of their travels, they will face a life-threatening disaster on the ice-shelf, and encounter unscrupulous criminals, operating in the nearby sea channel. But, will these courageous comrades be just too late to save the penguin colony; or can they overcome those perilous challenges, and prevail against all the odds?
Autorenporträt
The author has worked in the finance industry for nearly 40 years and is married with two daughters and a son, all now adults, and two grandsons. The idea for the story book stemmed from the older grandson, Corey, who was seven at the time, stating that penguins and polar bears could never meet as they inhabited opposite poles. The author, therefore, decided to write a story for him whereby a penguin and a polar bear not only did actually meet, but subsequently became best friends. The author was born and lives in Edinburgh.
