Kids:

If you want something to do, I hear these books are pretty good for all different ages. Ask a special friend if they would help you pick one out. I have a special friend who helps me all the time. Her name is Ikey. There are links under the books that go to pretty good descriptions of what the stories are about. You don't have to buy the books to read them though, you can just go to your local library and ask if they have the books there. I hope there are lots of books about Malamutes in here.
