    Did you say animals?

    Here's a great animal and adventure story:
    "Winterdance" is a very hilarious, can't-put-it down adventure of a guy who decides to train for the iditerod. Excellent coverage of life with a pack of dogs, and the race itself. Will teach you something, and leave you howling (ha!) with laughter at his expense.

    I have tons of books but none I would want to read this vacation. With my niece being sick and all we have been going through I don't want a drama or mistery or anything about anyone suffering.
    Anybody got a good book?
    I like books on adventure
    Cooking ("tender to the bone" is a great book about a food critics life growing up)
    Books on animals
    really if it is good I will read it!
    A few books I've loved...

    Life of Pi

    Matter of fact, that is EXACTLY where I was when the pic was taken.

    That Others May Live (can't remember author)

    All about the Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer program, and stories of the rescues. Amazing.
