“Jean Aspen helps us believe in the power of our dreams . . . her description of the fragile but magnificent beauty of the Arctic and the life she found there grabs your heart until you start wondering if maybe it’s time to leave it all behind and follow your own dreams.” —Barbara Wieser, coauthor of Rivers Running Free: Stories of Adventurous Women “Vividly rendered . . . unflinching . . . I was grateful . . . for the directness and honesty of this author’s voice.”—New York Times Book Review “A stirring adventure, well told. Jean Aspen and her family’s journey offers hope that dreams, wilderness, and family still hold value.”—Robert Perkins, author of Into the Great Solitude “A must read for any parent (and their children) who has ever contemplated the wonder of nature.”—Jonathan Waterman, Author
