ISBN: 9780399227981.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is Iditarod day. Fifty-six dog teams will race through 1,151 miles of rugged Alaskan terrain from Anchorage to Nome. Akiak knows these miles well. As lead dog, she has raced the incredible trail before, but never won. She is ten years old: if she is going to win, it must be now.\n\nWhen snow hurts her paw on the fourth day out, Mick, her musher, must leave her behind and continue the race without her. The rules say once a dog is dropped from the race, it may not rejoin the team. But Akiak doesnt know about rules. She is a lead dog, and her place is with the team. Nothing, not blizzards, not breaking ice, not the people out to catch her, will stop Akiak from catching up to her team. The question is, can the team still win?\n\nRobert J. Blakes majestic snowscapes will lead you through this unforgettable tale of a dog with a heros heart, a dog who will not give up. Akiak will leave you cheering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Philomel Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44984009556021,"sku":"ByrdShop_0399227989","price":26.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780399227981_587e42f9-b234-4f56-8105-0049bc786208.jpg?v=1778647945","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/akiak-a-tale-from-the-iditarod-9780399227981","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
