He hates waking up to the sound of his father's coughing, the smell of diesel oil, the noise of snow machines starting up. \u003cbr\u003e Only Oogruk, the shaman who owns the last team of dogs in the village, understands Russel's longing for the old ways and the songs that celebrated them. But Oogruk cannot give Russel the answers he seeks; the old man can only prepare him for what he must do alone. Driven by a strange, powerful dream of a long-ago self and by a burning desire to find his own song, Russel takes Oogruk's dogs on an epic journey of self-discovery that will change his life forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGary Paulsen (1931-2021) was one of the most honored writers of contemporary literature for young readers, author of three Newbery Honor titles, \u003ci\u003eDogsong\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHatchet\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Winter Room\u003c\/i\u003e.
