The girl who dreamed only geese, and other tales of the Far North

Norman, Howard A. (Author). Dillon, Leo, (ill.). Dillon, Diane, (ill.).

Summary: "Based on decades of research and extended collaboration with Inuit storytellers, award-winning author Howard Norman’s masterful retellings of ten Inuit tales invite readers on a unique story--journey from Siberia and Alaska to the Canadian Arctic and Greenland. Dramatic illustrations inspired by stonecut art of the Inuit people capture the beauty and mystery of these stories as they carry us--sometimes laughing, sometimes crying--from village to village over taiga, tundra, snow plains, and the iceberg-filled sea."--Amazon.ca
