Ah yes, the Dakotas, two states located west of Minnesota and without a doubt the most Scandinavian region in the entire country. Life was tougher though than their eastern neighbors knowing that the residents of the two Dakotas both North and South live in more rural, rugged terrain. It was there in the early 1950s where one Daniel Bjorn Thorkelsen, a 14-year-old Norwegian-American boy lived with his family who valued their heritage over the norms of the new world. Their home was in the middle of nowhere, and Daniel wanted nothing more than to go beyond the confines of his rural community and discover beyond, much to the dismay of his conservative family, but in the end, every adventure he embarks on always lead him back to his old prairie home, whether it be for better or worse. (Afterword: This is an idea I created out of creativity as I spent awhile searching for unadapted novels for a new MyCast Story, but to no avail.)
