Read along and sing along to this wintry snow bear story! Rory the polar bear is extremely excited. 'When will we see the magic sky?' he asks his parents every morning. But every morning they say it isn't time yet. Rory passes the days fishing with his Dad, sledging with his friends and learning to swim. At last the day of the magic sky arrives...but while Rory is playing outside waiting for the evening, a snowstorm blows up and he gets lost...All is resolved as Mum comes to find him and gives him a reassuring bear hug. Then the family go to watch the magic sky - which is, in fact, the dazzling Northern Lights.
