In the lead up to Mother’s Day here is one of a select number of suggestions that I’ll be sharing for gifts for the snow loving women in your lives.
Fjord’s Mountain Mission by Caroline Elliot and illustrated by Evgenia Malina.
This essential book is by snow safety educator, SAR avalanche dog handler and inspirational speaker Caroline Elliot.
Caroline followed a route from freestyle skiing, to ski instruction and then developed a specialism in ski patrol before becoming an avalanche dog handler. Caroline works to educate and inform people about mountain safety.
This fabulous, informative, fun book has important safety lessons which could literally safe the lives of those who read it.
Aimed at children, and fully illustrated which helps to present the information in a way to make it memorable and makes the messages accessible.
We won’t always be there when our loved ones are grown up and chart their own paths in the mountains, but helping them have a good foundation on mountain safety gives some comfort for their safety on their adventures.
Providing a fascinating insight into the vital role of mountain safety professionals. The story unfolds showing the breadth of responsibilities of this important role in the ski resort environment. The warmth of the characters’ woman and dog working bond becomes apparent, and the book being from mountain rescue dog Fjord’s point of view makes the reader also fall in love with this vibrant canine character.
A work of love for keeping the mountains safe shines through in this valuable book. Read it with loved ones and stay safe in the mountains, by being informed and in the know. A tribute all who work on mountain safety, search and rescue and beautiful Fjord the French Flat-Coated Retriever.
I had the honour of exchange books with Caroline at the National Snow Show in October 2022 and meeting her beautiful Källa.
