A fine story, well written and even somewhat engaging. Abandoned because there was simply too many other books that needed to be read at the time. My tween daughter loved it, and is still disappointed that I didn't make it past chapter 4.

I loved this book so much. I love wolves and sled dogs so this was just a book for me. It reminded me on A wolf called Wander because the story is really similar- it's about a wolf-dog who wins a sled race and is then bought by a man living in a city far away. He survives a plane crash before he is taken to him and rescued by a young boy and his family- they give him back to the man once he recovers but he travels over 2000 miles to get back to them - it's a really interesting and tense book and the illustrations are just gorgeous.

This is my favourite book from my childhood. I highly recommend it to any kid that loves animals, adventures and a nice setting for an entertaining reading. I also revisited it years later and it's really heartwarming,

This was a childhood favourite of mine. I'm not sure why I liked it so much, but it does have some charm to it.
