A charming picture book about how a polar bear postmaster named Milk helps a pair of crane parents find their missing chick. The illustrations are cute.

Very sweet, simple-looking drawings illustrate a sweet adventure about a polar bear who, in the course of his mail delivery duties, takes on a quest. In the course of his travels he involves all the other creatures along his route, negotiating with their various personalities to recruit them to help. It's a lovely bit of fun.

I have mixed feelings about this book. It introduced a lot of animals that aren't coming in the US, where I live, and Milk was adorable and helpful. However, the time frames don't make sense. The parents wait too long to ask for help, and while I like the story about how to ask for help, I don't know about the main "helper" character being a mailman instead of a policeman or firefighter.

I can't accurately rate this book because the e-book formatting has too many errors. Text is all over the place, out of order, and contains nonstop errors in capitalization. I also chose not to rate this book because it doesn't appeal to me as a good book for children. Especially with talking about the eating of babies. The book is wordy but the words used are simple with no new ones to expand the little one's vocabulary. The art is nice but the inconsistent sizing of the animals when they appear side by side is weird. Birds are larger than bears and so on.

Cute book! Lovely story with a nice arc but some of the details were a little strange - the illustrations thew me off, and I was unclear on what the distinction of the districts brought to the story. I think it just needed a little bit more editing and would be something I'd love to read at story time!

When a red-crested crane couple’s chick goes missing, they ask Milk, the polar bear postmaster, to help find the missing chick. Polar Bear Postman is a very sweet children’s story that highlights the postal service, community, and family.

This book is a great book to read as a family as I feel it may spark a few questions from young children. The illustrations are pretty simple & the soft pastel pages are very pretty.

Polar Bear Postman by Seiko Kijima is a book published by Museyon last November and suggested me through NetGalley.

Oh, it is an enchanting, lovely, cute, delicate and strong story, the one of Milk, a Polar Bear with a special work: the one of postman.

Just: one day, strange he receives a postcard with an important message addressed to him. Possible? It was from a couple of red-crones birds. Their chick missing they don't know anymore what to do. May Milk be helpful? May Milk can asks if someone noticed somewhere their beloved creature?

Milk is very worried and he starts to asking at carnivorous animals if they had spotted a chick somewhere, but no, although tasty, they ate a chick a lot of time ago. Then he creates a big connection with animals of every sorta for trying to discover where the chick ended up...

A beautiful, tender children's book, where sadness at the end dissolved and replaced by a lot of joy and good news. It was great to read a happy end because this one is not a light thematic.


I thank Museyon Publishing House for the digital copy of this ebook and NetGalley.

A beautifully illustrated book that will keep little ones eyes big with joy. The story can be a little sad for a sensitive young soul, but if it is read in a positive way the reaction should be a great one. I like a book that teaches a lesson or shares something that's important for children to learn. I especially like a book that is as visually stimulating as it is mentally.

This is a cute early mystery for young children. The illustrations are engaging, bringing the child into the story. Polar Bear Postman highlights the caring and help given to someone with a problem...helping others. This is a charming tale for youngsters.

This title was slightly disjointed. The illustrations were fun. The Polar Bear was darling. The premise was cute. The story was not engaging. My little one made it half way through before reaching for a different title. Might be more appealing to school ages 4-6, didn't appeal to 1-3 year olds (or 33 year olds, for that matter)

Cute book about the post man who helps in finding lost baby crane and reuniting her with her family. illustrations are good

Thanks to netgalley

Cute book about a Postman who just happens to be a polar bear! The setting is a forest in Japan with lots of animals who are enlisted to find a lost baby crane. The story starts and ends with postcards asking the postman for help. The first has lost a baby crane and the second has found a baby crane. This might be a bit worrying for little ones because it takes almost a year to find the chick.and get it back to its' parents ---but it all comes out good in the end. The exotic setting and different animals (for American kids) is refreshing..., and the Polar Bear Postman is smart, cute and endearing.

I really like this book so tender and cozy. Great illustration and a lovely story. If would like to meet a postman like Milk the polar bear.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Museyon for giving me the chance to read this book.

While I think the message of this book (that delivering mail means delivering happiness) is a good one, the story as a whole missed the mark for me. I liked the illustrations but I found the language to be a bit stilted. I'm also unsure if the story would really be that engaging for a young reader.

Like I said before, I really like to read children's book. Why? Because, the book itself is cute and heartwarming. So does this book. Polar Bear Postman is an illustration book by Seigo Kijima. When I read this book, I started to fall in love with the illustrations. In my opinion, it looks like oil painting and of course, it was really good.

Mr. Milk is a postman at Polar Bear Post Office. He usually works at his office to stamp all of the mail that received by the post office. Then, he would deliver it to every creature in the forest. One day, he got some letter that addressed to him. In that letter, a couple of red-crown crane told him that their baby was missing. Mir Milk knew that this problem was serious. So, he decided to ask every creature in the forest about that little-baby. He was brave enough to ask the fox and the eagle. After that, he asked help from his friend to look for the baby. Finally, some good news came and Mr. Milk succeed help the red-crown crane couple.

The story from this book is really simple. That's why I like reading children's book. I don't have to use much effort to finish it. I like the way Seigo Kijima write his work. The bear, Mr Milk, is really cute. Maybe, if I can meet him, I will hug him instantly. Then, the story won't make the reader confuse. The important thing from children's book is the moral value, and I think Kijima could deliver his value through this simple story.

Ahh, I wanna read another children's book again. It really made my day :D

4 stars for the cute bear.

Sincerely,

Milk, the postmaster at the Polar Bear Post Office, is known far and wide for his dependability. So when Milk receives a postcard addressed to him asking for help, he springs into action. The Red-Crowned Cranes in District 1 lost their baby in the marsh and need help finding him. Milk spreads the word far and near to many creatures of the forest. Has anyone seen the baby Red-Crowned Crane? Will they be able to find him?

The Polar Bear Post Man is a story about helping others in need. It's thick, black-lined illustrations are eye catching, but the story overall leaves me wanting a little more.

The art is charming and what sells this book for me. As for the story... meh. At 1st, I thought it was essentially a "Who Took the Farmer's Hat?" concept, but with a much more gruesome investigation (i.e., who ate the baby chick). The story just didn't do it for me, but I would happily look at another book by Seigo Kijima.

I really enjoyed the textures of the illustrations. The animals were all really well done. The story was fun, but it felt a little text heavy. Overall, it was a fun book.

Cute illustrations. The story of Milk, a polar bear who is also the postmaster searching for the missing baby red-crowned crane of District 1 is cute but also a tad scary for the very young. Both the fox and eagle were asked if they had recently eaten a red-crowned crane chick. They had not. From spring to summer Milk goes on to ask many of the forest animals if they had seen the chick, which they hadn't.. In the end, there is a happy ending.. This is a cute book.
