From the Publisher:
Far north, where the sun shines only part of the year, Anak and his family live with the rest of their Eskimo tribe near the Coronation Gulf. Anak experiences both adventure and danger as he learns how to hunt seals, caribou, and walruses; travels to the land of the white man; faces the threat of a bear attack; and accidentally drifts off to sea on an ice floe.
As Anak confronts the challenges of Eskimo life, he learns important lessons about responsibility and dependence on God.
