Seekers The Quest Begins

Here is my summary of a book I read:
Well, there is a polar bear named Kallik and all the ice is melting so her family has to leave right away and her little brother got lost and so her and her mother have to travel iceberg to iceberg. And while she is traveling, her mother felt something in the water and then she sees water shoot from the surface. She yells for Kallik to go back to the iceberg. All of a sudden a whale shoots up from the surface and attacks the mother bear!Unfortunately, Kallik must search on her own and find her brother in a new world where polar bears go every summer. So she has to get used to berries to eat and must make new friends.
Toklo is a grizzly bear and his brother Tobi isn't doing so well, he is sick. So his mother Oka only pays attention to Tobi. One night when Tobi and Oka are sleeping, Toklo wakes up and sees Tobi breathing funny. First he breathes really fast and then really slow. All of a sudden, Oka wakes up and screams. Then she gets really mad with Toklo so he asked, "why?" and she said, "you could have woken me up and told me Tobi was dying!" Sadness filled Toklo. He knew he didn't like Tobi but he didn't want that to happen. For the next week Oka didn't speak at all. When they were by the lake, Oka said, "I'm sorry but I must go" so she leaves Toklo to live on his own.
Lusa is a black bear that lives in a zoo and flat faces (humans) feed them. Lusa has a mother and a father who is like the boss of the bear section of the zoo. His name is King. King is always teaching Lusa to climb the only tree in the bear bowl. A month or solater a new bear comes to the bear bowl and she looked lonely so Lusa came to talk to her. The first thing she said was she made a terrible mistake by leaving my cub. "My name is Lusa," Lusa said. "I'm Oka." The next few days Oka wouldn't talk to Lusa. When a flat face came into feed the bears, Oka ran and growled and jumped on the flat face and tried to attack him. As soon as they got her off him they had to kill her but Lisa knew Oka wanted to tell Toklo she loved him. So she climbed up the tree bent over and jumped over the stone wall. On the way she meets some dangers. First, she runs into a city on the way and was starving. Just then she saw aluminum cans (garbage cans). So she starts digging through them. She hears yelling after a few minutes. Then she sees a flat face pointing a metal stick at her (a gun) so she runs away until she gets back to the path.
Toklo meets a younger grizzly bear that can shape shift. His name is Ujurak. Toklo was convinced to travel with him because he was so sad when Tobi died he wouldn't let Ujurak die. Also Ujurak told him when he got to a certain spot, the bear watchers would watch over them forever. A few months later Ujurak tried to catch a squirrel so to catch it quicker he changed into a rabbit. Lusa was quite close and when she saw the rabbit and tried to catch it, Toklo tackled her down. The she asked him his name because he looked familiar. When he said his name Toklo she said, "I've been looking for you." Kallik hasn't made any friends except for a giant polar bear that she is annoying by following him around the grassy land to learn how to survive there.
The end.
Get ready for 2# Great Bear Lake and 3# Smoke Mountain :)
