Edge of Nowhere by John Smelcer
Seth Evanoff and his dog Tucker are thrown from his dad's salmon fishing boat in the middle of a storm. Miraculously, they survive the storm and end up on an isolated island. When Seth realizes that he is not going to be rescued, he begins a journey of island hopping and trekking through dangerous waters and terrain trying to reach his home.
Throughout the story, Seth begins to remember his Alaskan heritage and we learn a lot of Alaskan lore. It is in our Young Adult section but would probably appeal more to the higher elementary and junior high age.
