about the book
When Polar Bear loses his underwear, it is up to the reader to help him find it again! Readers must remove the book’s underwear-shaped “bellyband” to find the missing garment. Aided by his friend, Mouse, Polar Bear finds different kinds all over the place, none of which seem to belong to him.
Here is a pair with colorful stripes—but they are Zebra’s.
Here is an itty-bitty pair. But no, they are clearly Butterfly’s. The search continues.
Will Mouse and Polar Bear (and the reader) ever find Polar Bear’s underwear?
