ETHEL BACON

Author Ethel Bacon loves the outdoors. She was a musher herself, and it really shows in her book, 
To See the Moon
. In this story, a young girl named Diane is determined that her puppy Kimo - the smallest and weakest in the sled dog litter - will grow strong and participate in the one-dog race twelve months away. Month by month, the story follows the two as they train for a race that beats the odds.
