I keep trying to picture this in its original oral form, because I think it may have been less confusing that way. I feel like it kind of skips around and doesn‘t fully explain some confusing parts. However, this captures a traditional story told by an Inuit storyteller and has lovely illustrations. It offers accessibility to the tale for people who may not have ever gotten a chance to hear it.
