I got to see Pam Flowers speak on Feb 3, second time I have seen her. She gave a presentation on her arctic expedition at Moultonboro's "One Book - One Community" kick off. SHE IS AMAZING!!! She is truly my hero. And I am so impressed with Moultonboro as a community. This year they hare having a theme "Sled Dog Oddessy", and 4 books instead of one!!!
She completed a 2500-mile dog sled trek across Arctic America with her 8 dog team and two huge sleds. This is the longest solo dog sled trek by a woman in recorded history. The first solo by a woman and the first by an American over this route: from Barrow, Alaska to Repulse Bay in Canada's Nunavut Territory.
I took the opportunity to get more copies of 3 of her books that I love: Alone Across the Arctic, Big Enough Anna and Douggie (the second two are fabulous childrens books that my little Emma LOVES).
