On #worldbookday I’m so thankful for every book I’ve ever read and written. For every bookseller, librarian, educator, bibliophile, publisher, and reader. For my amazing mom, an author herself, and my amazing dad, for passing down their love of books to me. Read on, lovelies! And thank you for being you! 📚📚📚💖 (photo of all my books: @silent_rhino Not pictured: BREATHLESS, coming Oct 6!!!) #worldbookday2020 #books #read #mybooks #reading #ilovebooks #ilovereading #gratitude #mybrightplaces #velvajean #theicemaster #adablackjack #aquanetdiaries #holdinguptheuniverse #allthebrightplaces https://www.instagram.com/p/B_V1H_OJxWy/?igshid=1wru9tdt0tnt6

【素敵な洋書絵本の紹介】 1921年、当時23歳だった北極圏に住むイヌピアット族のアイダ・ブラックジャックは、シベリアのヴランゲリ島の探検隊のメンバーをサポートするお針子として参加しました。 けれども遠征から一年、メンバーの一人が壊血病になり、助けに出た三人も戻ってきませんでした。 エイダは猫のヴィクトリアと共に、生き残るためのサバイバルを始めるのでした。 グラフィックノベルで描かれた彼女の物語は、作風でしょうか、どこか遠くの物語を読んでいるような気がします。 けれども、そうであるからこそ、この本に仕掛けられた創作の表現方法が活きてくるのだろうな、と思ったりもしました。 海外のコミックは日本のものとは違う雰囲気があり、面白いです。 How to Survive in the North Contributor(s): Healy, Luke (Illustrator) EAN: 9781910620328 Publisher: Nobrow Press Binding: Paperback Pub Date: September 05, 2017 Target Age Group: 13 to 17 Physical Info: 2.29 cms H x 24.89 cms L x 18.29 cms W (0.59 kgs) 200 pages Annotation: A unique graphic novel telling the stories of real and fictional Arctic castaways struggling to survive the long Northern winter. #lukehealy #adablackjack #readleafbooks #art #本 #本棚 #絵本 #児童書 #絵本屋 #洋書絵本 #絵本が好き #絵本が好きな人と繋がりたい #絵本のある暮らし #芸術 #英語 #イラスト #base #baseec　　 @readleafbooks Webショップで紹介中。プロフィールからぜひどうぞ！ https://www.instagram.com/p/CfeBwF_PspZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

An Ultimate Survival Story: a Woman Stayed in the Arctic for 5 Months All On Her Own We, humans, are exceptional creatures! Our bodies can survive falls from huge heights, extreme temperatures, and even weeks without food. But some survival stories literally make your blood run cold, and such is the story of Ada Blackjack, a young woman who spent 2 years on a bitterly-cold Arctic island, unprepared for such an ordeal and mostly on her own. In 1921, 23-year old Ada Blackjack found herself on an Arctic island, far away from civilization, in the company of four men and a female cat named Vic. An unlikely scenario by all means, so how did Ada end up in that situation?

Unfortunately, this marriage didn't bring the poor girl anything but despair. - Ada's son, Bennet, fell ill with tuberculosis, but she didn't have money for his treatment. She was forced to leave him in a local orphanage and set off in search of a job to earn enough to take him back home. - Ada heard about an expedition heading for Wrangel Island. It was organized by Arctic explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson, and they needed an Alaska Native seamstress who could cook and maintain the camp and also knew English. - Wrangel Island is located about 250 miles (402 km) away from the coast of Alaska and approximately 100 miles (161 km) north of Siberia. - That's how Ada Blackjack ended up stranded on Wrangel Island for 2 years, which was the needed time to stake claim to an uninhabited land. - The plan was to settle up, organize a camp, and live off the land until the ship with the load of supplies arrived. But, as it often happens in life, nothing went as planned. - The people on the island were starting to panic. They had almost run out of food, and there was a critical lack of game on the island. - In January, one member of the expedition, Lorne Knight, fell ill with scurvy. To avoid starvation, the rest of the men decided to explore an area further away from camp in attempts to find some food. - Her only companion got worse and worse. In June 1922, he passed away, and Ada was left entirely alone on a frozen, deserted island. - The woman learned to shoot seals with Knight's rifle and made shoe soles from their skins. She hunted, checked traps, and even built a makeshift boat from driftwood and canvas. - When a rescue party finally arrived on August 20, 1923, the crew of the schooner "Donaldson" noted that the woman who met them seemed to have mastered her environment.

Dear lovelies: Introducing my first two books, The Ice Master and Ada Blackjack. Nonfiction accounts of harrowing expeditions into the great white north. I started my career with Arctic nonfiction, and then moved to historical novels for adults, a memoir about high school, and now YA. Over the years, there were people who told me this was the worst thing I could do for my career, that I should stick to one genre and stay there. But I’ve always written the stories I wanted to tell. The stories I needed to write. Never let others tell you what you can and can’t do, lovelies. Never let them tell you no. Believe in yourself. Always. You are uniquely, extraordinarily you. You are amazing. Love, me ❤️ #youaremagic #believe #dreambig #theicemaster #adablackjack #nonfiction #shediditanyway #bebrave #arcticexploration #thearctic #adventurestories #bookstagram #itcanbedone #believeinyourself https://www.instagram.com/p/B3hlcVRpUOZ/?igshid=1s2j8ucruilfu

These lovely books from @editionspaulsen are cold reads for hot days. Ada Blackjack is the second book I ever wrote, and the true story of a young woman who was the only female and the only survivor of an Arctic expedition. She triumphed over sexism, abuse, and horrible self doubt, and emerged a hero. I was honored to write her story. Now available in French! 🖤 #adablackjack #truestory #arcticexpedition #arcticexplorer #nonfiction #bookstagram #shewasahero #girlpower #womenempowerment #shesurvived https://www.instagram.com/p/BzVv3UkpL3O/?igshid=a58jd078ck5w
