Dogs of the Iditarod by Jeff Schultz Gorgeous mostly picture book about the Iditarod dogs. It's about 5 years old, so some more recent names are mentioned, but still great pictures.
Storm Run by Libby Riddles. A children's story about how Libby won the Iditarod. I think how brutal it was was very much glossed over, but very inspiring. A lot of background information about dog mushing. Also, you can tell how life has changed in the past 20 years. No Iditarod Insider, no up to the minute updates for those at home following along. But then this past year we spent twelve hours wondering about what was happening to Mitch Seavey and Jeff King so modern communication isn't perfect.
