My Arctic 1, 2, 3

(Paperback)-Annick Press proudly celebrates the 10th anniversary of a treasured book. Whether as a returning reader or a first-time visitor, children of many ages will treasure Michael Kusugak's world of animals and adventure in the Arctic Circle. On each spread in My Arctic 1, 2, 3, readers discover counting and creatures, and learn who's predator and who's prey. They witness five Arctic foxes hunting six furry siksiks. They watch seven fisherman catch eight Arctic char. Numbers explored include 1 to 10, 20, 100 and even 1,000,000 (millions of berries ripen in the fall). Each scene, rendered in Vladyana Krykorka's breathtaking paintings, is awash in Arctic colors and includes the depicted number in English and Inuktitut. For those wanting more Inuit info, a special end section by Arctic-native Kusugak recounts his experiences living in the north alongside the animals featured in the book. With all these Arctic animals and number fun, it's no surprise My Arctic 1, 2, 3 has become a classic for families to share and cherish.
