Description

Vernon and Sylvia continue to live off the grid except for two school years in Palmer, where the kids attend public school. But Vernon must return to the trapline to support his family and several of the children, especially Janette, become dangerously ill while he is gone. After Sylvia’s father dies a year later, the family returns to Alexander Creek, while continuing to fish on Cook Inlet each summer.
At age 12, Janette begins fishing commercially along with her parents and helps to bring in income for the family. Although she loves her life in the wilderness, she feels lonely at times and is beginning to ask deep questions about life.
While written for the general public, this book, as well as the others in the series, is also suitable for older children who are interested in how families lived in earlier times and in far different circumstances than their own. They are written in part from the perspective of the children, as well as that of the adults.
