Summary
Did you know that Arctic explorers trapped in winter ice were forced to eat their shoes to avoid starvation, or that French adventurer la Vérendrye was convinced that Lake Winnipeg led to the Pacific Ocean? From Natives looking for hunting… grounds to Europeans searching for fish, gold, or the Northwest Passage, explorers have always been drawn to Canada. And now, with no unmapped lands left, present-day explorers focus on outer space, the ocean, and the preservation of the Earth. Grades 3-6. 2004.
