Arrow to Alaska: A Pacific Northwest Adventure

New from Hannah Viano, the author/illustrator of S is for Salmon, a PNBA best seller, comes the story of Arrow, a six-year-old boy who goes on an adventure to visit his grandfather in Alaska. Arrow starts off from the Ballard Locks in Seattle, aboard Aunt Kelly's salmon tender boat. After arriving at Grampy's quirky houseboat, Arrow and Grampy revel in each other's company in the great outdoors. The tale wraps up with a floatplane ride retracing Arrow's journey. Hannah Viano's striking papercut images capture whimsy and wonder, while her language sparkles.

A childhood spent on the rocky Maine coast introduced Hannah Viano to the wonders of life on and by the water. A decade spent as an outdoor educator from Ketchikan to Cape Horn added the joy of sharing her knowledge and sense of place with others. Viano now lives in Seattle, where she connects to Northwest nature and culture through public art projects, education, and site-specific installations. Her first book is S is for Salmon.
