Age Level: 8 and up. While a work of fiction, Promise of the White Dog was inspired by a true story. The book begins with a mysterious musher and team of white dogs spotted on a moonlit winter
night. Hearing a friend's account of the sighting causes main character Jeanne to reflect on the birth, years before, of a white puppy at her sled dog kennel: She had always wanted a white dog
but soon encountered someone who needed one. Read about Jeanne's decision and the surprising events that follow. Photo illustrations of winter scenes, puppies, and sled dogs appear throughout
the book.
