Read an Excerpt

“Good night, sweet child,” Mama said as she tucked Little Cub in.

But Little Cub wasn’t quite ready to go to sleep.

“Mama, where did I come from?” she asked.

“From God,” her mother answered. “Your papa and I were alone, and we wanted a baby.”

“And you got me?” Little Cub asked, her voice muffled from under the covers.

“Yes, my special child. God gave us you.”

From the Publisher

In an earnest, youthful voice, narrator Kim Mai Guest portrays a polar bear cub who asks questions about his origins. In a gently authoritative voice, Guest also portrays his mother, who shares the wonders of development and birth. The overall warmth in Guest’s voice will be reassuring to young listeners. In the give-and-take between mother and child, Bergren’s story shares just enough information—the parents’ excitement, the wishes for good health, the long waiting, the nursery preparation, the joy and tears at arrival—and also allays the young cub’s fears about not being the right child for his parents. Bergren’s repeated phrase “because God gave us you” is a hallmark of the story. A.R. © AudioFile 2012, Portland, Maine
