Most stars in the Ursa Minor Dwarf are old and there is little to no star forming activity going on in the galaxy. The constellation name Ursa Minor is pronounced /ˌɜːrsə ˈmaɪnər/. In English, the constellation is known as the Little Bear. The genitive form of Ursa Minor, used in star names, is Ursae Minoris (pronunciation: /ˌɜːrsiː mɪˈnɒrɪs/). The three-letter abbreviation, adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) in 1922, is UMi. Grandmother Bear (voiced by Diane D'Aquila) is Little Bear's maternal grandmother and Mother Bear's mother. She likes to cook and tell stories. I can't imagine getting through a day without reading or writing. I know it sounds a complete cliche, but there it is. I go to a writers' workshop once a week to meet other writers and exchange ideas and read work in progress, and that is hugely important to me. And every spare minute of the time at home I am reading, reading, reading…What would we do without stories?

Asterism The Little DipperMitzi (voiced by Ashley Taylor) is a mischievous, sometimes rather unthoughtful, tomboyish monkey, who lives in a treehouse in the forest around Little Bear's home.

Tutu (voiced by Tara Strong) is Emily and Granny's Chihuahua. She acts very hyper and she can understand humans. According to Granny, she only speaks French, yet she understands English. In 2015, Little Bear was added to the Noggin app, which streams shows from the classic Noggin channel. Mother Bear (voiced by Janet-Laine Green) is Little Bear's mother. She enjoys cooking and is always there to help Little Bear if he needs it. She also seems to be very tidy and does not like it when the house becomes messy. She normally wears a pink shirt and a blue skirt with a white apron.I hate cooking but love the idea of being a good cook and welcoming all my friends and family to delicious meals. So I have lots of beautiful cookery books but I never get past the first couple of recipes. Every so often I get madly enthusiastic all over again, but it doesn't last. The star’s traditional name comes from the Arabic al-kawkab, which means “the star” and is short for al-kawkab al-šamāliyy, or “the north star.” Pherkad – γ Ursae Minoris (Gamma Ursae Minoris)

Ursa Minor was first catalogued by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. It is easy to recognize because it contains the famous Little Dipper asterism. Ursa Minor is also notable for marking the location of the north celestial pole, as it is home to Polaris, the North Star, which is located at the end of the dipper’s handle.

Gamma Ursae Minoris is classified as a shell star, one that has a disk of gas surrounding its equator which causes variations in the star’s magnitude. I also enjoy being in the city—although I wouldn't want to live there all the time, it's fun to go window shopping or to big new exhibitions or shows, or just hang out in a coffee shop with a cappuccino and a notebook and watch the busy world go by.
