About the Author

Reviews

Gr 2 - 5, younger reading aloud. ...Murphy touches on climate, wildlife, and typical activities of Alaskan children. She distinguishes three groups of native peoples (Aleut, Eskimo, and Indian) and describes the wide variety of lifestyles (ranging from life in the city to living in remote cabins) available to Alaskans. Mason's intriging, sharply reproduced, full-color images apear on every page and capture the essence of the Alaskan experience.  ---Kay Weisman, BOOKLIST

There's so much packed into 48 pages that readers will want to re-read and look at the pictures over and over again, seeing and learning something new every time.   ---School Library Journal.
