Why read it?
1 author picked Sled Dog School as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Yes, I chose a second book by Terry Lynn Johnson. The two books I chose are quite different in both subject matter and tone though. This book is a light-hearted story about eleven-year-old Matt who starts his own business for his school project. He chooses sled-dog training. I’ve always loved books about kid-run businesses, and this one has a great cast of characters.
From Natalie's list on The best middle grade sled-dog books.
