Newbery Honor Book recounts a timeless tale of a shepherd's devotion to the wild rams of his native Siberia. "A good story, and an enchanting glimpse of an unfamiliar region." ― Kirkus Reviews. Siberian-born Nicholas Kalashnikoff spent four years of his adult life in the region while under political exile. During that period, he participated in an expedition to the far north setting for The Defender. Kalashnikoff became an American citizen in 1930 and wrote several books for adults and chlidren.
