Regular price
€11.99
The next exciting adventure for Uncle Pete and TM sees them prepare for an
Arctic expedition to get Berg, the little polar bear, back to his family.
Gathering together their snow gear, they fit skis on the plane and head north
with Berg.
When they arrive where the family were last seen, the snow has melted and
there is no sign of the bears. A passing whale tells the team they have been
captured and taken off in a very sinister looking black ship.
There is excitement aplenty, with wooden squirrel helicopters, tunnels, bears
in disguises, evil animal hunters and a daring rescue.
And so, the third quest for Uncle Pete and TM begins.
The third title in the thrilling magical, fantasy adventure series for six- to nineyear-
olds.
Written by award-winning writer and journalist David C Flanagan, featuring
line drawings and illustrations by Will Hughes, with his quirky Quentin Blakelike
style.
This hilarious new adventure takes Uncle Pete and his fearless female
sidekick,TM, on an incredible Arctic adventure, with themes of determination,
collaboration, ingenuity, kindness and acceptance.
David C. Flanagan is a writer and award-winning journalist

His first book, Board, was published by Fledgling Press in 2015

and also loves skateboarding, fitness training and walking in the
Scottish mountains.
The Uncle Pete series of books is David's first series for
children, reflecting his passion for adventure stories, his love of
animals, and his slightly wacky sense of humour.
