Seekers book 1

Kallik, Toklo, and Lusa have semi-normal lives. Kallik and her brother Taqqiq frolic in the ice, listening to their mother tell the legends of the polar bears. Toklo's mother doesn't have time to tell him stories, spending every day caring for Toklo's sick brother Tobi. Lusa has no siblings, but her best friend, Yogi, of the Bear Bowl (zoo) is like  brother. But all of a sudden, their lives change. Kallik's mother is killed and her brother disappears. Tobi dies and his mother leaves Toklo to fend for himself. And a new bear comes to the Bear Bowl, with stories to tell Lusa... Stories of a sickened, dead cub, of a son abandoned, an apology unsaid. And Lusa sets out to deliver the message.
