{"product_id":"9781897142493","title":"Northern Kids","description":"\u003cp\u003eChildren and teenagers experience Canada’s North in a way that adults do not. They have shaped its history, and yet how often are they asked to tell its story? \u003ci\u003eNorthern Kids\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of tales about the unforgettable young people of the Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and remote regions of the western provinces. Based on personal interviews and thorough archival research, each true story is narrated in the voice of a young northerner. Travel along with these kids as they hunt for caribou or hidden gold, mush a dogsled team, climb over the Chilkoot Pass, float down the Yukon River on a homemade raft, and explore the Arctic tundra through every season. While \u003ci\u003eNorthern Kids\u003c\/i\u003e celebrates the independent spirit of young northerners—their wilderness skills, sense of humour and love of fun—it also takes an unflinching look at their hardships. At the end of each story, a section called “What do we know for sure?” offers the reader detail and historical context. This is the fourth book in the Courageous Kids series, which includes \u003ci\u003eKidmonton: True Stories of River City Kids\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRocky Mountain Kids\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIsland Kids\u003c\/i\u003e, and now \u003ci\u003eNorthern Kids\u003c\/i\u003e.
