Each title in the series contains 10 pages of charted cross stitch designs on one popular subject. Every chart includes an easy-to-use key, and an inspirational colour photograph of each finished piece shows the fantastic results to be achieved.

From the biggest polar bear to playful penguins, arctic life is evoked through these two very different creatures. A polar bear mother stands watch over her cubs as they rest on an Arctic ice flow, while another cub and his mother take a stroll together through the snow. Grand emperor penguins, with their distinguished yellow marking, warm their chicks, while another pair rest after a long day's fishing. A group of Antartic Adelie penguins launch themselves into the cold sea. Finally, a cute penguin chick and a pair of polar bear cubs make charming small pictures.

Wolves and bears are beautiful creatures with details that are fascinating to stitch. A family of brown bears fish in the river and enjoy the treat they have caught, while another bear is detailed in a magnificent portrait. A second portrait brings us face to face with an amazing amber-eyed wolf. Finally a coyote howls dramatically at the sky in front of a moonlit landscape, framed by a Native American style border.
