Winter Dance April 7, 2007 Winter Dance gives a comical and yet realistic glimpse of what the Alaskan Iditarod Race is all about. After reading this account, I understood the running of the dogs and the human challenges and I laughed all along the way.
Excellent quick read! April 4, 2007 I couldn't put this book down and will be recommending it to many friends- what an excellent story!!
Winterdance, An Unbelievable Adventure March 17, 2007 This is the funniest and most enjoyable non-fiction book that I have ever read. I recommend it highly.
Man's best friends on the trip to Nome January 30, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Great adventure story. Takes all of us into the Alaskan wilderness and the wonder of nature. Winterdance makes us sensitive to the relationship between animals and man and their importance in navigating the hazards of the Alaskan winter. While there is no mention of the reason behind the first Iditarod to Nome, the story was powerful enough to initiate a web search for that medical background.
Funny and Touching Story January 24, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I read this book in one night because it was so funny and compelling. Then my fiance and I took turns reading it out loud to each other. In one hilarous moment, Paulson describes having his pants catch on fire because there are matches in his pocket and he's being dragged on his side along the driveway by his sled dog team. He also describes watching wildlife do amazing things we didn't think they did. (Buffalo play games.)
