Ten polka-playing polar bears gather on an iceberg that's big enough for a stage. The band begins to play, then suddenly - SNAP! - a chunk breaks off and one of the bears floats away. Undaunted, the nine bears left strike a chord when - POP! There goes another piece... And then another... And then another... How will the show go on?

In addition to colorful, polka-playing polar bears, whales, walrus, seals and other Alaskan wildlife abound in this amusing learn-to-count story as the bears come up with a satisfying solution to the pickle they find themselves in.
