Togo wasn't meant to be a sled dog. He was too feisty and independent to make a good team member, let alone a leader. But Togo is determined, and when his trainer, Leonhard Seppala, gives him a chance, he soon becomes one of the fastest sled dogs in history! His skills are put to the ultimate test, though, when Seppala and his team are called on to make the now-famous run across the frozen Arctic to deliver the serum that will save Alaska from a life-threatening outbreak of diphtheria. In the style of Akiak, winner of the Irma S. and James H. Black Award for Excellence in Children's Literature, along with five state awards, Robert J. Blake's detailed, carefully researched oil paintings complete the story of the adventure that inspired the internationally famous Iditarod race.

The year was 1981. Shirley Cropsey was your typical wife and mother from Michigan, except for one thing: God called her family to medical missions in Togo, West Africa. As they prepared to follow God’s lead, Shirley and her family caught the flu. Her family recovered, but Shirley’s health continued to decline. As the date of their departure came nearer, Shirley found herself asking: Will my health impact my family’s call to serve? Follow along as Shirley pours Scripture and insight into letter after letter to her mom. Between buying groceries in a foreign country and protecting her sons from African snakes, Shirley shares about her daily struggles of homesickness, cultural adjustments, political strife, and chronic illness. Through Shirley’s story, see all that God can do with a willing, open heart.
