Customer Reviews

Face to Face

This book is one in a series of "Face to Face" titles by the same author. Although it is not a book for primary children, my students enjoyed the photographs and the blurbs of information that I read aloud to them. Very interesting book, indeed.

Teenage Grandson Loved it

Face to Face with Polar Bears, Face to Face with Grizzlies, and Little Polar Bears was purchased as a "Special Christmas Present" for my three teenage grand kids. They get an annual subscription to National Geographic KIDS. These exceeded my expectations, on filling the bill. They talked their mom & dad into letting each of them call and thank me for the "great books!" Said a card couldn't let me know how much they are enjoying them. They middle one chose Face to Face with Polar Bears.
