Review # 1 was written on 2014-03-26 00:00:00 Michelle Palacios Lars the little polar bear returns in this seventh picture-book chronicling his adventures, this time encountering a little puffin named Yuri. With his wings encrusted with oil, Yuri cannot fly, and it falls to Lars to help him, first taking him to the local hot springs to clean off, and then escorting him back to his ship. On the way, the two have a magical experience in a hot air balloon, and Lars finally discovers what it's like to fly... Originally published in Switzerland as Kleiner Eisbär, hilf mir fliegen! (literally: "Little Polar Bear, Help Me Fly"), Little Polar Bear and the Big Balloon returns to the tried and true formula of this series, which alternates between a scenario in which the eponymous ursine hero befriends an animal in need of help getting home, and kindly lends a paw; and one in which Lars himself is borne off from home, and needs help himself, in getting back. Like its predecessors, this one pairs a gentle, heartwarming tale with lovely watercolor illustrations. Recommended to fans of the series.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-05-05 00:00:00 Old School This book could teach students the importance of helping a friend out, but to also be cautious of what you do and the situations you put yourself in when making not wise choices. Lars climbed into a hot air balloon that sent him and his friend Yuri high into the sky. With Lars' encouragement, Yuri began to fly again after not being able to. Finally the hot air balloon landed safely and Yuri and Lars went their separate ways.
