Author Karsten Heuer and his wife followed a migrating herd of caribou for five months in order to record their story and persuade people not to destroy their calving ground to dig for oil. They had to survive on their own, trekking after the caribou on foot, as the caribou made their way to the calving ground, had babies, and moved onward. The photos are amazing and it's an important story to tell, but I found the book overall to be rather slight. It appears that there might be a version of this book for adult readers and I'd be interested to see what the differences are.

A quick read that will teach you a little about caribou migration. It has lots of pretty photographs

Beautiful pictures. The story was about how the two hikers survived and what they saw.

This would have been much better with more detail and discussion. It is great for a younger reader, but is sparse and a bit too superficial for older readers. The pictures are great though.

Holy smokes. What a feat of endurance. One of those books where I was glad I could tell that the author made it out alive since he'd written the book himself. I would have loved more pictures.
