A young family's story of pioneer life consisting of a teenage daughter (Nell) and her younger brother David, aka "Da", along with their dog (Robin), have unique adventures in the heart of the frontier wilderness, where they are thrust into mysterious and dangerous situations of survival amongst Canada's snows.
The Story starts off as the children have been left alone in a log cabin presuming that their widowed father will return in 4 days. Eight days have now gone by with no sign of him.

Very nice short story and a terrific reader.

Laurie Banza did a wonderful job of reading this great short-story, written by Edith Elise Cowper. I truly enjoyed listening to it.

I've always enjoyed books about wilderness survival, and about self- rescuing youngsters, so this one checks two boxes. These kids are smart, alert, decisive, and so is the dog. It's a satisfying read. The narration is good, too.
Thoroughly enjoyed this
A LibriVox Listener
A new author and narrator for me, and I appreciated the work of both very much. A fascinating story of a bygone era. Real but gentle suspense just right for an enjoyable listen.
