A sweet, poignant story of a young Alaskan girl, her sled dogs, and her family. I thought this book was exceptionally well-written, with a little bit of mystery, plot twists, and lots of heart. I love it too because it reminded me of growing up in Alaska and visiting my grandparents each year. I also appreciate that the author includes some fantastic writing prompts and questions at the end of the book.
