Two children go to visit their grandmother. Then they decide to go on an outdoor adventure. Readers, along with the children, will learn a lot about ice fishing. At the end of the day when they have caught more char than they can eat, they learn a lesson in generosity.
I like a lot about this book, including everything I already got mentioned. I appreciated that it is a woman taking the children to learn traditional put door activities. The back matter contains a glossary of Inuktitut terminology used in the book and images with accompanying information about the fishing tools used.
Th illustrations are a bit too cartoonish for my liking, but the publisher, Inhabit Media, is an Iqaluit company, so what do I know?
