The snowstorm raging through the little town of Skagway is the least of Andy Seaberg's worries. He is more concerned about the big basketball game he and his fellow fifth graders will be playing against the tough sixth graders.

But before this event can even take place, Andy's father is called away to Seattle, and his mother is rushed to the hospital with a severe case of the flu. This leaves Andy at home with his two younger sisters and a pesky little brother and a handful of other problems to solve before he can even get to his basketball practices. The Skagway Kids: Alaska Snowstorm continues where Alaska Christmas left off, Christmas day of 1946, and rushes with howling North Wind into January 1947.

Can Andy get everything back to normal before the day of the big game?
