Since the admission of Alaska as our forty-ninth state there has been a wide-spread and growing interest in the new neighbor state. The Great Land and its people have many and strange surprises to reward that interest. Foremost among these are those native Alaskans, the Eskimos who live on the north rim of our world.
This story of Kidlik is an absorbing account of the experiences of an Eskimo boy. It is action packed and builds up to a suspenseful satisfying climax.
The pictures are authentic and make it very easy for a young reader to place himself on the scene.
