Summary

Since discovering the Canadian Flyer, a magical time-traveling sled, in Emily's attic, Matt and Emily have had a number of exciting adventures. In Arctic Storm they find themselves stranded in the Far North in 1976 - and a squall is on the way! After a shaky landing on snow-covered ground, the two friends meet a team of research scientists studying animal migration and habitat. Problem is, the scientists are traveling without their guide, they've lost their radio and half their supplies, and now a storm is coming. To make matters worse, Arthur, a scientist's son, is becoming increasingly ill and needs a doctor. And after the group is spooked in the night by howling wolves, they wake up to find their lead sled dog missing! Can Matt and Emily brave the storm and help their new friends back to safety? And will their faith in Moon Dog, the least experienced sled dog in the pack, help him lead the group through the storm?
