Why I chose this book?

I chose this book out of the list of books because I love adventure. When I read that the book is about an adventure trip to Antarctica I wanted to read it. I have read books about Antarctica and about the historic Scott’s expedition and this book relates to both the topics. I also wanted to read this book because I had an adventure trip to Alaska and I wanted to compare my trip to the trip the character had in Antarctica. I also wanted to read this book because I am a boy scout and i wanted to see how Sym (the character) survived in the dangerous cold weathers of Antarctica. Some personal connections I made to the book while reading were, I too would like to visit Antarctica some time in the future. I knew some of the stuff about the Scott’s expedition and Antarctica, similar to the characters in the book. I like this book and I would recommend this book to people who love adventure and also to people who like and know about Antarctica and the Scott’s expedition. I would also recommend this book to people who are shy about interacting with others and are bullied by their friends. This book does provide great examples of how one can discover themselves and become bold and courageous human beings.
