Knut: How One Little Polar Bear Captivated the World

This is such a sweet story of Knut and his handler with beautiful (very cute) photographs. My 8-year old daughter is studying environment in her school and has particularly latched onto the idea of polar bears. This gives an intimate portrait of one polar bear without being preachy about the environment - through there are appropriate resources at the back. My five year old also enjoys it - I think this reading level would continue to be appropriate up to about 9 or 10. One of the better "polar bear" books we have come across.

This book has been a big hit with the children in our family. My niece's granddaughter took it to preschool to share it with her classmates and my nephew-in-law's son took it to bed with him as well as to preschool to share the wonder and magic of precious Knut with his classmates! It is a beautiful, wholesome true story that the whole family can enjoy.

What a beautiful book! Im only sad that l purchased it after Knut passed away in the Berlin Zoo. I keep it on my glass coffee table and many of my guests pick it up and read it from cover to end and get comments from each of them "What a gorgeous little bear, what a beautiful book"Thank you Amazon for sending me this book that l will always treasure. I am in Melbourne Australia and received my package only a few days after l placed my order. It travelled thousands of miles across the world to get to me and arrived in perfect condition. A must read book particularly if you love wildlife. A beautifully written book about a polar bear that defied the odds and became the worlds best loved polar bear. May you rest in peace beautiful bear.

This is an exuberant and delightful story that both children and adults will want to read again and again. Knut's heartwarming story is truly one that deserved to be told; he really was the little polar bear that could.

the story of Knut and the zoo employee who raised him is SO sweet. the pics of Knut are too adorable. I had given a copy of this book to my grand daughter for Christmas and then ordered this one from amazon just to have another on hand ( and also so I could look at it lol). Very sweet, any child or animal lover who is young at heart will love it.

It's about KNUT! What's not to LOVE! It will bring tears to your eyes and joy into your heart! The story of THE DREAM TEAM, Knut and Thomas Dorflein, bring back all the innocent feelings of childhood. You will re-connect with your inner child again!

Knur was also an inspiration to those of us who haven't already fallen in love with the orphaned bear. This is a love story!

Nice story. My granddaughter checked out a video of Knut from the library and I was excited to find the book for her,
