"Papa, what’s heav’n?" Little Cub queries her father as her family rises in the morning, the opening of the story. Readers follow the polar bear family through their daily tasks and are privy to the explanations Papa bear provides and the conversation that develops as more questions occur to Little Cub. While answering Little Cub’s questions Papa bear answers many of the queries similar to those your own little cubs may ask.

"When do we get to see heaven?"

"Will we eat in heaven?"

"Will we be angels?"

Some of the questions do not have clear biblical answers; not much is known about heaven when we examine the scriptures. Papa bear is never evasive, but speaks in terms that small children can understand. He tells Little Cub of heaven’s goodness, how it is filled with love and everything that we long for, most especially God.

And the most important question:

"How do we get there, Papa? To heaven, I mean."

This launches Papa bear into a simple explanation of Jesus as the bridge to heaven, a mild children’s gospel that simply points to Jesus as the Way. However, the theology offered is somewhat soft, with Papa bear positing that all of their loved ones will be in heaven – a statement made before he shares about Jesus. Parents may want to clarify that this is the case only if all of these loved ones are believers.

Bryant’s illustrations are delightful, they are among my favourites in children’s literature. The bear family is adorable in their wintry home, the snow reflecting all the shades of the sky and sun. The soft, powdery pastel shades are enticing, rendering the bears huggable and the landscapes somewhat ethereal.
