Sheila Burnfordová proslula svými příběhy o zvířatech a jejich dobrodružstvích v divočině, často zasazenými do kanadské krajiny. Její styl se vyznačuje citem pro detail a schopností vtáhnout čtenáře do světa přírody. Ačkoli její díla bývají označována za dětskou literaturu, Burnfordová často zkoumala hlubší témata a složitost přírodního světa. Zkušenosti z cest po Arktidě jí umožnily zachytit prchavou krásu a drsnou realitu vzdálených končin.

The Incredible Journey is one of the great children's stories of all time--and has been popular ever since its debut in 1961.
