Their father, Kesshoo, is a brave fisherman and strong hunter and their mother Koolee is clever in making clothing and shoes out of the skins of the animals which he brings home. We watch the twins as they spot a polar bear while coasting on their sleds, then join with the villagers in the sharing of the meat and the feasting afterwards. Among the other activities they enjoy are ice fishing, building a snow house, hunting for seals, and traveling by boat to their summering ground where they catch salmon to dry for the winter. Children are captivated by the humor and playfulness in this community where the winter night lasts for four long months!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span><span><span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Additional information:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ages:&nbsp; <\/strong><em>6-8<\/em><span><strong>Length:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><span> <\/span><em><span>168 pages<\/span><\/em><span><span><span><span><strong>Format:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><em><span><span>Paperback, Ebook<\/span><\/span><\/em><span><strong>Illustrations:<\/strong><\/span><em><strong><span>&nbsp;<\/span><\/strong><span><span><span><span><strong><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span>&nbsp;Black and white<\/span><\/em><span><span><span><span><strong>Year published:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><em><span><span><span><span>2006<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><span><span><span><strong>ISBN:<\/strong>&nbsp; <\/span><\/span><\/span><em><\/em><em>978-1-59915-059-8<\/em><span><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><strong><span>Genres:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><em><span><span><span><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span>&nbsp; <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span>Literature, Fiction<\/span><\/em>                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Purchase book at Amazon<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Add print book to cart<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Add ebook to cart<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>1.
