Excerpt
Joe and Cody lived with their mama, their papa, and Codys black dog, Ootsi. They lived too far north for most trees. Most of the year the lakes and islands and rivers and hills were covered in snow.
All year long, they followed the caribou with a sled pulled by eight huskies. “Mush!” Papa would yell, and the dogs would run straight forward. “Cha!” he would shout, and they would turn right. And when he yelled “U!” they turned left.
