Tanya Tagaq's latest title is a sweet counting book for little readers. Follow the polar bears along their journey as they gain more friends to play, dance, sleep, hunt with! IT BEARS REPEATING is gorgeously illustrated by Cee Pootoogook.

✿ Beginning with 1 proud polar bear standing tall and ending with 10 bears waving goodbye, this delightful counting book shows polar bears in all their forms: slippery and fast, crafty and cool, hungry and proud.

Tanya has created a story meant to be read aloud, incorporating simple Inuktitut words and using her keen ear for the musical sound of language. ✿
