While ice fishing, an Inuit girl hauls in some unexpected catches: a bright wooden bird, a red flower, a starfish, etc. These colorful objects cheer her up and attract friendly animal visitors. Come spring, she drops her polar bear pendant into the water for another child to find. Colored-pencil and watercolor and gouache wash illustrations perfectly capture the landscape and tone of this quiet tale.
