Skruffy the Teenage Polar Bear
Children's Book
Oh, and go wild and have lots of fun, too.
He's a little bit generous and a little bit selfish. Sound like your normal teenager?
Almost, but not quite. SKRUFFY is a teenage polar bear.
Global warming is subtly evident in his misadventures with many colorful characters.
Skruffy annoys just about everybody -- other polar bears, Eskimos,
the military, oilfield workers, the Tierra Club, and other Arctic inhabitants,
including Santa Claus's Elves and reindeer. He's a bit of a jerk that only his mother can love.
Oh, and the cute little polar bear down the road likes him, too. Skruffy trundles his way into all kinds of trouble,
learning hard lessons along the way and becoming, sort of kind of, a better bear. He finally reaches his goal.
