Surrounded by deep canyons of ice, John Muir and a little black dog named Stickeen wonder – are they doomed?
Why Stickeen wished to come along on this trek over a glacier in the first place, Muir did not know. He had never offered Muir friendship or asked for any affection. Would this little pup now become Muir's last companion? How Muir and Stickeen handle this challenge together and are changed by it creates a classic story. Muir later wrote of this adventure in Alaska in the summer of 1880 as “the most memorable of all my wild days.”
Near the beginning of the twentieth century, both children and adults alike implored Muir to tell this favourite story. Muir's written version is difficult for present day children to understand however. Therefore it is now retold using many of Muir's original words, thoughts and images.
