Fifteen-year-old Jonas, an Inuit boy, faces a crucial decision: Should he return to high school or join his grandfather to learn about the world of the great hunters? His mother, who has already lost her husband and older son to the wilderness, wishes for an easier life for Jonas. But his grandfather, for whom living in harmony with nature is second nature, wants Jonas to be his successor. He wants him to learn how to stalk seals and reindeer, cast nets in the icy water, and test the ice to see if it can support humans. Which of the two worlds should he choose? 142 exciting pages, hardcover
