Reach for this book when your child is facing a daunting challenge and needs a real-world example of how persistence and selflessness can make the impossible happen. This gripping narrative recounts the 1897 rescue of 265 whalers stranded in the frozen Arctic, led by three men who traveled 1,500 miles across ice and snow to save them. It is an extraordinary study in grit, empathy, and the power of human connection during a crisis. While the stakes are high, the focus remains on the ingenuity and resilience of the rescuers and the indigenous people who assisted them. It is ideal for middle schoolers who are ready for mature themes of survival but still need an uplifting, hopeful resolution to complex problems.
