Lars, a little polar bear was enjoying looking out at the ice and snow when he hears a small hare named Hugo at the bottom of deep hole. He is able to get Hugo out of the hole and they have fun playing together. As they are going home it starts to snow and they wait out the storm. After the storm they are lost and follow a red vehicle to the polar station. Although Hugo is afraid, Lars talks Hugo into finding food in the rubbish behind the station. Lars also starts exploring and gets trapped inside the station. Hugo is still afraid but tries to find a way to help his new friend. 

The Little Polar Bear and the Brave Little Hare is an engaging story about making friends and finding bravery to help each other. I enjoyed the cute characters and their interactions with each other. The cute illustrations work well with the story. The Little Polar Bear would be a great addition to your collection of picture books.
