ISBN: 9780618548958 - the lamp, the ice, and the boat called fish: based on a true story: based on a true story – a beautifully illustrated book about arctic survival and inupiaq culture for kids (ages 4-7) (42 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A riveting, unforgettable survival story, poetically told and exquisitely illustrated with rounded scratchboard art, that captures the strength and grace of Inupiaq culture. In 1913, a boat called Fish, part of the Canadian Arctic Expedition, became stuck in the Arctic ice. On board were a captain and crew, scientists and explorers, a cat, forty sled dogs, Inupiaq hunters, and an Inupaiq family with two small girls. Even with the Inupiat and their skills of hunting and sewing, even with the family's care and wisdom, even with the compassion and courage of their captain, odds for survival in the cold dark Arctic seem against the passengers of the Karluk. And by the story's end, readers will know something of the way of life in the high north, something of the song of the place, the wide sky, the sound of the wind, the ptarmigan. This beautiful 48-page book includes details of centuries-old crafts and skills--of sewing boots from caribou legs and ugruk skin, of quickly cutting snow houses, of wearing wooden goggles to ward off snow blindness--that will enrich modern imaginations.…
