From the Back Cover

The snow bear is so enchanted by the sight of a dazzling rainbow that he longs
to soak up its colours for himself - but when his wish is granted, he needs
help to become a snow bear once more . . .

Snug in the warmth of his mother's feathers, Little Albatross grows stronger
every day - until his parents decide he is old enough to be left alone, just
for a little while . . .

Moving and lyrical, The Rainbow Bear and Little Albatross are two classic
animal stories by the internationally bestselling author Michael Morpurgo,
winner of the Whitbread Award and the Children's Book Award.

Beautifully brought to life by Michael Foreman's original illustrations, this
is a gem of a book to be enjoyed over and over again.
