About this title

From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Grade 3-- Salty, the frisky pup of Salty Dog (Holt, 1989), is older now and ready to set sail with his owner on a voyage to Alaska. And what an adventure it is! After running into heavy squalls, the pair's journey includes a stop to admire Tlingit Indian totem poles, a near miss with wolves along the coast, a glimpse of a grizzly and her cubs, and Salty's sidetrip on a floating iceberg. Zesty, realistic watercolors in bright, sea-faring hues capture the high-flown sense of adventure shared by these intrepid sailors. The story, which spins out like a glossy travelogue, follows Salty's perilous exploits while providing readers with handsome views of the northern Pacific coastline. --Phyllis G.
