STE'PHANE PRIBBLE Hi, have you ever read a terrific book, have you ever just loved a book so much? Well, I know I have , and the name of it is Susan Butcher and the Iditarod Trail. I love this book because it's about Alaska, and I love Alaska. The book is about a women named Susan Howlet Butcher. It's about how she trained for the Iditarod. The reason I like this book is because it teaches people how to train for the Iditarod, and in my future, I want to be a musher. In my future days I hope to meet Susan. The book also tells me how to get started, and when is the right time to turn corners, or things like that. The book also helps me on concentration and how to adapt and what to do when I'm on the trail.See there are lots of reasons I love this book. In, conclusion I still wonder to this day where Susan really is. But now the only way I can talk to her is on email, and on the email she still helps me with problems I have and how to get ready for the Iditarod. HAPPY TRAILS,
