Summary:
Using the letters that spell "Inuksuk" in Inuktitut symbols, the origins, culture, beliefs, and customs of the Inuit people are presented. An inuksuk is a stone landmark that different peoples of the Arctic region build to leave a symbolic message. Inuksuit (the plural of inuksuk) can point the way, express joy, or simply say: welcome. A central image in Inuit culture, the inuksuk frames this picture book as an acrostic: readers will learn seven words from the Inuktitut language whose first letters together spell INUKSUK. Each word is presented in English and in Inuktitut characters, with phonetic pronunciation guides provided.
Genre:
Alphabet books.
Preschool picture book.
