Pedro's Pan
A Gold Rush Story

In this picture book that’s based on the true story of Felice Pedroni, a miner sifts through the creeks of Fairbanks, Alaska, at the turn of the nineteenth century. Pedro and Pan—one in red plaid and suspenders, the other round and shiny with a mobile smile and eyes—explore together, braving wild animals, harsh weather, and hard work before striking it big.
