I want to give a heartfelt thank you to everyone at Scholastic, especially Brenda Murray, AnnMarie Anderson, and Kay Petronio. Thank you for a polar adventure.

I also want to thank Jessica Regel and Tara Hart at JVNLA. Thank you for your continued guidance and support.

And I am very grateful to Laura Kissel, polar curator at the Byrd Polar Research Center Archival Program. Thank you for all of your help and for the use of the photos.
