| book description |

Follow the stories of two men in one historic race to reach the South Pole. In 1910, Captain Robert Falcon Scott and the team of the Terra Nova embarked on an intrepid journey to Antarctica. Their mission: to explore uncharted lands, carry out important scientific work and become the first to reach the South Pole. There was just one problem â€“ Scott wasnâ€™t the only one with his sights on the Pole! Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen had spent his whole life dreaming of polar adventure. After narrowly missing the chance to be first to the North Pole, he was determined to win the race to the South. In this two-sided story, readers will follow one manâ€™s journey before flipping the book to see things from the other side. This novel approach to storytelling encourages young readers to look at historic events from different perspectives, and to develop empathy and critical thinking as they face both triumph and tragedy in this remarkable true story. Childrenâ€™s author Alexandra Stewart expertly weaves together history, natural history and STEM into an engaging narrative-driven tale, brought to life with beautiful artwork by illustrator Sarah Wilkins.
