?I dream of home. Waves on the beach rolling upon the slick sand. I can hear the sound of the ocean, and it's comforting. I can feel the warm sun, and I'm happy. Dogs enter my dream, coming from the deep recesses in my mind, running on sand that shifts like dry snow. Dog Beach, it?s called, where dogs are allowed to run without leashes. Yip, yip, yip! The yelping dogs come toward me, and I?ve never owned a dog in my life. I?ve never been to Dog Beach either. I only heard about it. Even in my sleep, I know I?m in danger. Still, I don?t want to move from the luxurious warm sand. Closer and closer they come. I struggle to get out of the way. Then I hear the swoosh of sled runners.? Fourteen-year-old Laurie Buckner from California is freezing to death in the Alaskan Arctic when she meets Dog Woman. This deaf villager, feared by many, is determined to enter the Iditarod, a grueling dog sled race across Alaska. In spite of the challenges and risks, Dog Woman draws Laurie into an adventure that changes both their lives.
