In his fabulous new book, Dennis uses experiences from his own life to give a terrific insight into the heart and soul of polar bears. Part novel, part biography, he tells a compelling story about how an affinity with polar bears helped a boy become a man. Nigel Marven, wildlife filmaker

It was an incredibly heartwarming memoir. I never expected a polar bear to bond with a human in such a way. Ute Pelzer
