Bilingual Inuktitut and English: Includes Inuktitut Syllabics and English text on each page. Useful for those who can read Inuktitut or to expose children to Indigenous languages. Inuktitut Syllabics are used to closely follow the teaching recommendations of the Department of Education in Nunavut. Showcasing Arctic life: Similar to previous community storybooks (for example, Where Did the Walruses Go?, Elijah's Super Halloween, Inuki's Birthday Party), the reader is shown a community in Nunavut through the eyes of a child narrator. A great way to showcase modern life in the North with Southern students with curriculum tie-ins to seasons and weather. Developed by Indigenous authors and educators: This book was written by Arna Audlaluk and Rachel Rupke. Rachel is an educational consultant and Arna is an author and teacher who lives in Grise Fiord. Educationally reviewed: All our publications are reviewed intensively by a team of Northern educators and language experts to ensure they are culturally authentic and that stories and information are considered in an educational context.


In this case, the author also reviewed all the illustrations since she has firsthand knowledge of her community. Dynamic hand-painted illustrations: All the artwork in this book is hand painted. A lot of our art is done digitally so that makes this book unique. Bonus educational material: Activities are included at the back of the book to prompt discussion and help with reading comprehension. Printable components will be available to download for free online.
