Category: Juvenile Fiction

Elim, The Determined Athlete is based on a true story and told according to the pup. Elim, The Determined Athlete, reveals the real reason a four month old Alaska village husky joined champion musher, Jeff King's team on the Iditarod trail. Uplifting and motivating, the reader learns about setting goals, working hard, proving oneself, and ignoring peer rebuffs. Jeff King assisted the pup in becoming a real athlete -- a sled dog, instead of just another basketball wanna-be.
