Winter can be cruel in the Arctic, and food quickly grows scarce
for those who cannot hunt. In these difficult times, the
grandmother of an orphaned boy wishes aloud for the qallupaluit -
strange, monstrous creatures that live under the sea ice - to take
her grandson away forever. The old woman soon regrets her hasty
words when the little boy is snatched and carried away to the
creatures' underwater lair. After enlisting the help of her fellow
villagers, the old woman learns that her grandson may be happier
with the qallupaluit than he ever was with her. Written for
contemporary audiences by acclaimed Inuit author Rachel A Qitsualik
and illustrated in a quick comic book style, this tale is sure to
thrill middle grade readers.
