  John Muir And Stickeen: An Icy Adventure With A No-Good Dog: Come along on a trip to Alaska! This is the true adventure story about John Muir and a “no-good” dog named Stickeen. Muir is best known for his work to establish and conserve America's national parks, but he was also a farmer, inventor, explorer and writer. Muir loved all things wild, and felt that tame animals and livestock had lost their wilderness, and therefore much of their intelligence and spirit. But on an expedition to Alaska, a friend's dog changed Muir's mind. John Muir and Stickeen tells the thrilling adventure of how Muir set off to explore a glacier one day, with the unwelcome accompaniment of Stickeen, and ran into a storm. What happened that terrifying day made Muir see domestic animals in a new light.

This is a fascinating true story, full of close calls, heroic behavior, and the incredible power of nature. Gripping text, dramatic journal entries reflective of Muir's own account, and gorgeous fine artwork tell the story of one of America's natural history heroes and how a trusting dog changed his life.
