"I cannot understand this woman. I have no desire to pursue unsafe, crazy adventures. I have a lovely, comfortable home and a loving family. Bonkers. She annoys me almost as much as the guy from Into the Wild except she lives."
"The Heroic Saga of the first solo journey by a woman and her dog to the pole. Foreword by Sir Edmund Hillary. Includes 8 pages of photos. In 1988, Helen set off to do what no other woman had done- ski (alone) to the magnetic North Pole. At the last minute, she was persuaded to take Charlie, a black husky, with her. Little did she know that Charlie would save her life! An exciting read and easy to read too. My brother Wyatt and I really enjoyed this "adventure" together. :) Suitable for all ages."
