Scout
Julie Nye grew up in the Les Cheneaux area, in the town of Hessel where this story takes place. Like Jeff, her summers there were full of experiences with dogs, horses, and boats. Julie has been writing since she won a sixth-grade creative-writing contest, and she has published several items for children. Her love for the beauty of Michigan's Upper Peninsula was the inspiration for writing this, her second novel.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
