Description

Based on bestselling author and award-winning dogsledder Blair Braverman's real-life team of sled dogs! An adorable sled dog discovers the power of teamwork, self-acceptance, and never giving up in this debut picture book.

"Dogsled racer Braverman's sweet narrative builds a satisfying case for individuality as a community asset. [Olivia] When's illustrations are...peerless. An absolute pleasure."--Kirkus (STARRED REVIEW)

Leap is a sweet, snow-loving sled dog puppy who can't wait until she's big enough to join the team. Each of the other sled dogs is special in their own way. Boo is fast. Donut is brave. Jenga is smart. And Leap wonders: Is she special, too?

This empowering story reminds us that anything is possible when teamwork, individuality, and friendship grow in leaps and bounds.

Includes an author's note with photos of the real-life Leap and her teammates!
