I bought this at the Iditarod Headquarters when we were there in August. Expect several reviews to follow. This is Susan's story about Granite, her lead dog when she won the Iditarod the first time, as well as winning many other races together. I wasn't aware that Granite was the "runt" of the litter. I'd be curious to know if that's true or meant to be dramatic. I thought the part about the moose atttack was handled well. It's a children's story that includes what was a horrifying event. It was sad to realize at the end that both Granite and Susan are no longer with us. I guess he was needed to go ahead and help prepare her silver harness team.
Also, the illustrations are wonderful.
