Publisher Comments:

The steel-gray Husky Chiri was just a puppy when he watched the black wolf kill his mother and two brothers. Left alone inthe snow-covered land oof the coyote, caribou, and gizzly, Chiri learned to fend for himself, to hunt and survive by his keen instinct and natural intelligence. Now full-grown and full of courage and cunning, Chiri forms a tentative bond with trapper Link Stevens, the only human he's ever learned to trust. But the Husky knows that one day soon he will have to face the black wolf again--and this time only one of them will survive.

I enjoyed this book alot. It teaches alot about courage, determination, and the will to survive. I fell in love with the characters and the events that took place. I think it is a book for all ages, and shows the meaning of survival in the wilderness. I eventually got my own husky, and named it Chirikov, or Chiri for short.
