Hugh Neff at Rainy Pass by Sawyer

Do you know that Hugh Neff inspires kids to read so much that he put Cat in the Hat striped coats on his sled dogs in the 2012 Iditarod? He was going over a rocky patch of rocks in a windy, cold storm while he was heading to Rainy Pass (a checkpoint), and he was running between the runners (a part of the sled) and smack!!!! his sled hit the side of the rutty, solid rocks and he almost fell off his dog sled. He recovered and kept on going in the chilly white out. Maybe he almost fell of his sled because he was thinking about eating Green Eggs and Ham just like the Doctor Seuss book.
