Jeannie Dick (USA: MS) (2007/10/05): This is an absolutely wonderful book ... It's one of those that you find yourself hoping for a sleepless night so that you will have an excuse to stay up and read all night. This is the story of a family and the struggles of four children who are orphaned unexepectedly and tragicly in the land of the harsh far north. How do they survive? Read and see! Their heartbreaking story is also one of passion, bravery and empowerment. Beautiful and haunting.
