Lccn 2014044369 Ocr_converted abbyy-to-hocr 1.1.20 Ocr_module_version 0.0.17 Old_pallet IA19526 Openlibrary_edition I can easily recommend any of these as read alouds, they’ve turned out to be so fun and engaging. (This one, Cakes in Space, and Oliver and the Sea Monkeys all by the same author/illustrator). Lastenromaanien parhaimmistoa ja nythän pitää varata muitakin Reeven kirjoja kirjastosta. Sopivaa, nopeaa maagista seikkailua, mutta tarpeeksi simppeliä. In Pugs of the Frozen North, the pugs say ‘Yip!’ and ‘Arooo!’ You could create speech bubbles for the children’s creatures with the sounds their various creatures make while they’re racing. But wait, what's this? Two kids riding a sled pulled by 66 pugs wearing jumpers?! The underdogs are coming.It has an interesting story with a lot of adventures and some life lessons on how important it is to help each other. They even added a story about a dying grandpa showing that there is nothing that can be done against it but he was still happy at the end by getting what he wanted in his life. Immersive, richly textured, and enormous fun. It's a great example of what illustrated children's novels can achieve" - The Guardian What follows is a really exciting adventure through a frozen world, inhabited with snow trolls, sea monsters, the Kraken, hungry yetis and fifty different kinds of snow. Rather like the “Wizard of Oz,” our heroes have to make their way to the icicle palace of the Snow father, who can grant wishes. Will they make it and will Shen find what he most desires?

This is a cute story. I read it in one sitting and liked it. There is a great deal of adventure and danger that Shen, Sika, and the pugs have to face. But, they do it together and help each other, and their competitors along the way. The whole book is a race and I can't wait to read the whole book to find out what happens in the end." - Rachel Zinkin, age 8, for lovereading4kids.co.uk This story is about a boy called Shen and a girl called Sika, who along with 66 pugs race to the top of the world. They can’t resist the chance to win and claim the prize of ‘your heart’s desire.’ Snow trolls, sea monsters and a tribe of hungry yetis stand in their way but will their 234 paw-powered sled help them be the first to get to the finish line? My seven-year-old and I have read and really enjoyed all three of Philip Reeve and Sarah McIntyre's collaborations. This was my favorite by far, which is really saying something; my seven-year-old says he loves this as much as he loved Oliver and the Seawigs (the first of them), which is also really saying something, because, as he explained, "I love Oliver a LOT."

When Shen finds himself abandoned upon a frozen sea along with 66 pugs, he is unsure of his fate. Fortunately, he encounters Sika and her family. She agrees to look after the dogs so long as they can be part of a sledging competition in which the winner is granted their heart's desire.
