[LM_NET] HIT: Need book title

[Walt & Sharon Koontz <koontzw@SBCGLOBAL.NET>]

Amazing! within 40 min. I had the answer.  Looked it up on Amazon, it was exactly 
as the teacher described!  ( I just didn't think of it being a leveled book. )
Thanks all!! 


This is Andrew Clements' book Tara and Tiree, Fearless Friends in his easy
reader Pets to the Rescue Series.

Subject: [LM_NET] TAR: Need book title

A staff member remembers standing in the elementary library reading a
picture book during the Scholastic book fair last year.  (It may or may not
have been ON the book fair). It was about a man who lived up north.. perhaps
Alaska who was walking with his dogs, when he fell through ice. He told the
dogs to go home, but they stayed with him, making several efforts to help
him, before they succeeded in getting him out of the creek/river/lake.   She
thinks it was based on a true story.  The cover is 'mostly' white, and she
remembers very realistic artistic illustrations. Now she wants to use it
with a class. I've searched my catalog, with no success. Any ideas???
