Talking to Alaska by Anna Woltz - Digital Activity Pack

Sometimes rivals just need a helping paw…

Talking to Alaska is a powerful story of two unlikely friends brought together by the love of a dog.

It only takes one day at their new school for Parker and Sven to become mortal enemies. Parker has had a terrible summer and just wants to be invisible, while Sven is desperate to be known as anything other than “that boy with epilepsy”.

When Parker discovers her beloved dog Alaska – who she had to give away last year – now belongs to Sven, she’s determined to steal Alaska back. Of course, that’s easier said than done…
