In the junior fiction intermediate section, Bibi Tak’s “Soldier Bear” waits for young and old readers alike. Based on a true series of events during World War II, this heart-warming tale of mascots and pets is highly recommended.
Orphaned, Voytek becomes a great help discovering a spy, carrying ballistics and comforting embattled and weary soldiers. In the group is a monkey, dogs and five Polish military men who become life-long friends.
