The Bravest Dog Ever: The True Story of Balto tells the story of Balto the sled dog who lived in Nome, Alaska, in 1925. When children in Nome become sick with an illness called diphtheria, the doctor realizes they need help. However, closest medicine available is in the city of Anchorage over 800 miles away. The only way to retrieve the medicine and save the children’s lives is to transport it with sled-dogs. The town plans for the medicine to travel by dog sled relay with each team waiting at a different stop. By the time the medicine gets to Balto and his owner Gunnar, the delivery was running behind. Balto and the sled dog team head towards Nome with the medicine, but face many dangers along the way. Through it all, Balto leads the sled dog team fearlessly and his courage leads to the delivery of the medicine in time to save the children of Nome. As students read about the historic delivery of the medicine that saved Nome, they will celebrate bravery and learn more about Balto, a figure that continues to live on in American memory.

"On Friday noon, July the twentieth, 1714, the finest bridge in all Peru broke and precipitated five travelers into the gulf below."
With this celebrated sentence Thornton Wilder begins The Bridge of San Luis Rey, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, one of the towering achievements in American fiction, and a novel beloved throughout the world.
By chance, a monk witnesses the tragedy. Brother Juniper then embarks on a quest to prove that it was divine intervention rather than chance that led to the deaths of those who perished in the tragedy. His search leads to his own death—and to Wilder’s timeless investigation into the nature of love and the meaning of the human condition.
