MILE ZERO TO THE GREAT NORTH: The Complete History for Kids isn't just another history book-it's an adventure that takes kids straight into the wild heart of one of the greatest engineering triumphs of the 20th century: the building of the Alaska Highway.

Packed with real stories, surprising facts, and daring adventures, this book brings history alive in a way kids can actually enjoy. Readers will travel back to a time when forests, rivers, and mountains stood between two countries and a dream. They'll meet dreamers like Donald MacDonald who first imagined the road, and Slim Williams who proved it could be done with his unforgettable dog sled on car wheels. They'll cheer on the thousands of soldiers and workers who braved mud, muskeg, ice, and swarms of mosquitoes to carve a 2,700 km road in just eight months.
