But Magdanz feels he has qualifications in his work and life that give him an insight into the lifestyle. The book, which took four years to produce, features illustrations done by Widom in octopus ink. Widom used Magdanz' skill as a photographer to help her with the illustrations. Magdanz credits his family for their inspiration. By telling a story, it makes it easier.
Stories make life all that much more interesting.
Magdanz' philosophy lives on in the pages of the book. Magdanz and Widom will be available to sign books at the Arctic Trading Post in Nome from 4-7 p.m. Oct. 4. The Arctic Trading Post is hosting special children's readings at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. on Oct. 5. Alaska Newspapers Incorporated. Used by Permission.
