Mr McCool

Ice Age meets The Odyssey in an incredible journey about the most unlikely of friendships.

Ain’t I never told you about the skittery-glittery? Imagine the whole night sky, flashing and roaring wiv colour. No words describe it.

Mr McCool is a polar bear on a mission: to escape the zoo and travel back to his true home – the North Pole. With a human boy and a furry side-kick for company, Mr McCool sets sail. But the waters hold secrets, and hidden dangers … Will they ever reach the dancing lights of the northern sky?

Witty, warm and full of fun this animal book by Jonathan Tulloch is as enchanting and skillfully crafted as his debut children’s novel, I Am a Cloud, I can Blow Anywhere.
