'In Margaret Ruthin's Reindeer Girl Elli Sara was taken from the world of the snow and the reindeer herds to rejoin her father in the city of Helsinki. In this new book we meet her again several years later after she has trained as a nurse. She and her friend Marja alone among the Finnish nurses can speak the Lapp Language and so it is they who are sent out into the wild reindeer country when an epidemic breaks out. The weather and the country are difficult and dangerous but the problems confronting them are even more serious. Why do Elli's childhood friends refuse her help and run away from the medical aid they so desperately need? Who are the strange miners who seem to have such influence over the Lapps? Many peculiar things happenbefore the two nurses can really get to grips with the epidemic. Once again Miss Ruthin succeeds in this unusual adventure story in bringing to life the strange world of the Lapps.' 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Illustrator: Whitby, Marie. Quantity Available: 1.
