Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Yeehaw Sitka Rose is a loose cannon with a lasso, and she's not afraid to use it. But when Rose gets stuck in a rut, she travels to Nome on the back of a humpback whale in search of gold and adventure. Alaskan artist Shannon Cartwright captures the wild, rugged beauty of the great north.
A rhyming tale about a gal named Rose who sets out to find adventure in Alaska, where she rides a whale to Nome, digs out the Yukon River, and builds mountains out of the gold nuggets she mines.
