It's the 1920s, and Bo was headed for an Alaska orphanage when
she won the hearts of two tough gold miners who set out to raise
her, enthusiastically helped by all the kind people of the nearby
Eskimo village.
Bo learns Eskimo along with English, helps in the cookshack,
learns to polka, and rides along with Big Annie and her dog team.
There's always some kind of excitement: Bo sees her first airplane,
has a run-in with a bear, and meets a mysterious lost little
boy.
Here is an unforgettable story of a little girl growing up in
the exhilarating time after the big Alaska gold rushes.
