About this listen

Balto has a quiet life as a sled dog - until tragedy strikes. Dozens of children in Nome become sick with diphtheria. Without antitoxin serum, they will perish - and the closest supply is 650 miles away! The only way to get the serum to Nome is by sled, but can the dogs deliver it in time? Heading bravely into a brutal blizzard, Balto leads the race for life.©2009 Elizabeth Cody Kimmel; 2009 Listening Library Animal Fiction Animals Animals & Nature Dogs Exploration & Discovery Explore the World Geography & Cultures Growing Up Growing Up & Facts of Life Health History Literature & Fiction North America United States Fiction

I am always looking for good stories for my kindergartener. Sometimes themes and plots are too mature, but this true story was a perfect addition to our audiobook collection. The narration is clear and engaging.

A Win for My Kindergartener!

This book is so sigma it made me want to read it 15 times. Great for people on a kindergarten reading level like me even though I’m 57 years old.

Good details. Kids and adults in family loved it. Narrator was perfect. Not at all like the cartoon (of course). Very impressed with it overall. Perfect short book to listen to in the winter.

Excellent winter-time listen
