365 Days to Alaska

 









Rigel has been living with her family in the bush of Alaska but now that her parents are getting divorced she is moving to Connecticut with her mom and sisters.  Before she leaves her dad, Bear, promises she can come back in a year.  365 days to tolerate Connecticut.

But as time passes Rigel starts making friends, starts taking care of a crow, and finds that things aren't so bad after all.  Will she ever get back to Alaska?
