Where is the North Pole? / by Megan Stine ; illustrated by Robert Squier.

Stine, Megan, (author.). Squier, Robert, (illustrator.).

Summary:
"It might seem lonely at the top of the world, but the North Pole is teeming with life! Polar bears, walruses, and Arctic seals make their home on sea ice that can be nine feet thick, while the Inuit and other Indigenous peoples continue their traditions and means for survival in this harsh climate. Along with the early twentieth-century story of Robert Peary's egomaniacal quest to reach the exact spot of the North Pole, this is an exciting new addition to the Where is? series" -- Provided by publisher.
