"Let's go! Experience the magic of skating on wild ice. Two children wake up to hear the lake singing, then the wind begins wailing ... or is it a wolf? They bundle up and venture out into the cold, carrying their skates. On the snow-covered shore, they spot tracks made by fox, deer, hare, mink, otter ... and the wolf! In the bay, the ice is thick and smooth. They lace up their skates, step onto the ice, stroking and gliding, and the great lake sings again. In her signature poetic style, Jean E. Pendziwol describes the exhilarating experience of skating on the wild ice of Lake Superior, including the haunting singing that occurs as the ice expands and contracts. Accompanied by Todd Stewart's breathtaking illustrations, this book will make us all long to skate wild!"--… (mais)

Our breath hovers - puffs of air that drift like tiny clouds.
We can see Lake Superior breathing, too. Far from the frozen shore, out where the wind and waves have kept the water open, sea smoke rises, hovers above the surface, tumbling and turning - a fortress of fog.
A pair of ravens croak at the top of a pine, and chick-a-dee-dee-dees greet us from the branches of birch and alder. A blue jay scolds - thief, thief, thief! We laugh and tell him we've only come to steal this moment - turquoise ice, the wind, a memory.
She hums a haunted melody, the song of water held captive by winter, mysterious magical music as old as the earth, rising from her depths, echoing up and up and into us.
