Synopsis

Young armchair adventurers can travel to the topmost point on the globe and learn all about the vast region surrounding the North Pole.

From the #1 New York Times Best-Selling Who Was? series comes Where Is?, a series that tells the stories of world-famous landmarks and natural wonders!

It might seem lonely at the top of the world, but the North Pole is teeming with life! Polar bears, walruses, and arctic seals make their home on sea ice that can be nine feet thick while the Inuit and other indigenous peoples continue their traditions and means for survival in this harsh climate. Along with the early twentieth-century story of Robert Peary’s egomaniacal quest to reach the exact spot of the North Pole, this is an exciting new addition to the Where Is? series.

An interesting read about the race to North Pole while beautifully describing the geography around it and the challenges incurred to get there. The author has tactfully woven the life of the Intuits and the wildlife of the arctic around the story of the two rivals trying to reach North Pole.......more
