Review by Nathan:
Andy lives in a remote village in Alaska and keeps a trap line. One day when he is on the line, he runs across the plane wreck of Smiley who had been transporting the winning lead dog of the North American Dog Sled Race. The dog named Kavik is found by Andy near the crash, still alive but barely. He struggles to get Kavik home and even then people don't think he'll live. Kavik makes a full physical recovery and his owner wants him back. The owner, Mr. Hunter, takes him back down South but Kavik escapes and starts working his way up to Andy's village. Will he survive the journey and if so will Mr. Hunter take him again?
I like Alaska and much of this book takes place in Alaska so I enjoyed it very much.
