This is a beautiful picture book with no text. This book allows the readers to create their own story just by looking a the pictures. It seems like the story is about a polar bear that finds a tree house and he invites different animals to come and enjoy the tree house as it is very big and looks a place where they can share stories and have fun with each other. One day all the animals had to go back home before winter comes so the only ones that stayed in the tree house were the polar bear and his friend grizzly bear. I think that I could use this book with students so that they use their own imagination to come up with their own stories. I got a little bit nostalgic with this book because even though the book does not have text, the images expresses how it feels after meeting with a lot of people you love and when they have to leave after having a good time together.… (altro)
