DESCRIPTION:

Follow the stories of two men in one historic race to reach the South Pole. In 1910, Captain Robert Falcon Scott and his team embarked on a journey to Antarctica to explore uncharted lands, carry out important scientific work and become the first to reach the South Pole. But Scott wasn't the only one with his sights on the Pole! Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen had spent his whole life dreaming of polar adventure and he was determined to win the race to the South. In this two-sided story encourages young readers to look at historic events from different perspectives, and to develop empathy and critical thinking as they face both triumph and tragedy in this remarkable true story.
