From the author of Ice Dogs, comes a riveting adventure about a musher who sets out to prove her impaired vision won't hold her back from competing in a rigorous sled race through the Canadian wilderness. Perfect for fans of Gary Paulsen. McKenna Barney is trying to hide her worsening eyesight and has been isolating herself for the last year. But at the request of her little sister, she signs up for a commemorative mail run race in the Canadian wilderness-a race she doesn't know if she can even see to run. Winning would mean getting her disease-and her sister's-national media coverage, but it would also pit McKenna and her team of eight sled dogs against racers from across the globe for three days of shifting lake ice, sudden owl attacks, snow squalls, and bitterly cold nights. A page-turning adventure about living with disability and surviving the wilderness, Dog Driven is the story of one girl's self-determination and the courage it takes to trust in others.

Remy, Micayla, Bennett, and the C Twins are back on Seagate Island for another summer of beach traditions, new and old. A new tradition: keeping Remy's dog-sitting business going.

Tempers are short and dogs are bored. What can one 12-year-old do to create summer magic when the summer doesn't seem to be showing up?

Se habla de modelo de recuperación de los Doce Pasos para referirse al programa de tratamiento que ofrece Alcohólicos Anónimos, que predica la abstinencia absoluta animando a sus miembros a buscar fortalezas fuera de sí mismos (poder superior), a adoptar valores espirituales y a realizar una serie de prácticas (además de trabajar individualmente los Doce Pasos, asistir a reuniones con otros alcohólicos, leer literatura específica, servir altruistamente a la propia comunidad…) (Borkmann, 2008).
Ante las necesidades específicas de cada adicción, se fueron configurando nuevas comunidades también basadas en los Doce Pasos y que adoptaron el adjetivo “Anónimos”, entre ellas encontramos: Narcóticos Anónimos, Cocaína Anónimos, Marihuana Anónimos, Jugadores Anónimos, etc. En todas ellas, se aboga por una abstinencia absoluta y el programa presenta unas características muy similares a las de Alcohólicos Anónimos (Laudet, 2008).
