Survive/The Blizzard

Eric and his mom traveled to Alaska see the Iditarod Sled Dog Race. Eric, in the long run, gets lost in the woods and there ends up being a snow storm. You'll see how he handles his journey back to his mom. I read this book because I like the author Jim O'Connoor. I also read this because of the other Survive books. "I don't care if I see the first sled or the twenty-first sled. Any sled will do. If I can just spot one, I'll be okay. I've got to find the race route and wait near it. Sooner or later someone will come by." thought Eric. (page 55) I think this really relates to the book. He doesn't care who he sees but he wants and/or needs to find someone because he is lost. I think the author makes the boy sound real because that's what someone would really think, who cares about the race, I need help. I loved the book because I don't like a lot of suspence in a book. This book may not be for eveyone though. It's not real interesting but is kind of exciting.
