Stickeen: John Muir and the Brave Little Dog, story retold by Donnell Rubay, illustrations by Christopher Canyon. Surrounded by deep canyons of ice, John Muir and a little black dog named Stickeen wonder---are they doomed? How Muir and Stickeen handle this challenge together, and are changed by it, creates a classic story. Muir wrote of this adventure in Alaska, in the summer of 1880, as "the most memorable of all my wild days."
