This book is perfect for kids ages 4 to 8.

In a starred review, Kirkus Reviews says, "An absolute pleasure. Dogsled racer Braverman’s sweet narrative builds a satisfying case for individuality as a community asset, celebrating both the value of teamwork and the discrete strengths that comprise it."
