This sparked great conversations with my 6-year old. What does Inuit mean? If they were here first, why is our language English? What makes the Northern Lights? Do you think the explanation of souls being in the Lights is true or just a pretty story? He was upset that the mom didn‘t come home and no one explained to the girl. This is a deep book, but if you read it at the right time, it makes for great talks. The illustrations are beautiful.

TrishB Very insightful questions from your little one 👍🏻 6y
