How does it feel to be near the North Pole when it’s so cold that a cup of hot water, thrown in the air, explodes into ice particles? What’s it like to be somewhere even colder—the South Pole, where a refrigerator containing fruits and vegetables has to be heated? Come explore these two places where few people have ever been. Life on the Ice is br-r-rimming with fabulous photos and facts about working and living in these frozen, exotic worlds.
