Bad Bears in the Big City: An Irving & Muktuk Story

32 pp. | Houghton | March, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-618-25208-8 $$16.00
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jill Pinkwater. In the latest Irving and Muktuk installment, the muffin-loving polar bears are shipped to the Bayonne, New Jersey, zoo with a note that they aren't to be trusted. In this droll but unfocused story, the bears sneak off to visit a polar bear who leaves the zoo each night for his own apartment. The ink and felt-tip illustrations are agreeable if repetitive.
Reviewer: Peter D. Sieruta
