This is a fiction book. The character I like best is Kiki because she always knows how to make machinery work even if she doesn’t really know how they work. I’m this book she has to try and ride a snowmobile but she doesn’t know how. But she figured out how to use it.

It was interesting because when a girl touched a thing she turns to an explorer. She then went with her friends to exciting missions to save a scientist. I would recommend this to anyone.

I think this book is filled with action and emits good imagination for the mind. It has charming characters and is filled with facts about the arctic. I felt a bit worried when I read up to the part when Kiki and Connor found out that there was a polar bear on the loose. This story is somewhat cute in a way. I would definitely recommend this story to my friends.
