- The little folk / by Illuitok, Levi.; James, Steve,1980-;
"This traditional story, retold by Kugaaruk Elder Levi Illuitok, tells the tale of a Inuk boy who is adopted by little folk--a magical race of small Arctic people called inugarulliit. The boy's adopted parents finally allow him to go hunting, where he catches a lemming. The little folk use their abilities to turn the lemming into a polar bear, and the catch is stored at their iglu. The boy's parents are proud that their son can provide lots of meat to share with the community. This is a magical introduction to a traditional Inuit story for young readers."--- Subjects: Picture books.; Inuit; Tales; Oral tradition;

- Out of the ice : how climate change is revealing the past / by Eamer, Claire,1947-; Shannon, Drew,1988-;
As the Earth's climate continues to warm, the permafrost melts, glaciers recede, and ice patches shrink, resulting in the discovery of a treasury of preserved organic material, like human and animal remains, and inorganic artifacts, like ancient tools and clothing. The big melt is providing us with new information about how people and animals lived several thousand years ago. But it's a race against time for archaeologists. As soon as the objects begin to thaw, they also begin to disintegrate.LSC- Subjects: Ice patch archaeology; Excavations (Archaeology); Climatic changes; Global warming;

- At the end of the world : a true story of murder in the Arctic / by Millman, Lawrence,author.;
"At the End of the World is the remarkable story of a series of murders that occurred in an extremely remote corner of the Arctic in 1941. Those murders show that senseless violence in the name of religion is not only a contemporary phenomenon, and that a people as seemingly peaceful as the Inuit can become unpeaceful at the drop of a hat or, in this instance, a meteor shower. At the same time, the book is a warning cry against the destruction of what's left of our culture's humanity, along the destruction of the natural world. Has technology deprived us of our eyes? the author asks. Has it deprived the world of birds, beasts, and flowers? Lawrence Millman's At the End of the World is a brilliant and original book by one of the boldest writers of our era"--- Subjects: Inuit.; Murder; Violence;

Bobby will have to work side by side with Mel Ivarson, the crusty co-founder of the airline, and his beautiful and headstrong daughter Krista, but together they will face breath-taking challenges on a daily basis as they fly in the world's most bleak and beautiful and inhospitable environment. This is strictly a starting point, and the airline is just our entree into a wider world.Canadian Home Video Rating: PG.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital 5.1.- Subjects: Airlines; Family-owned business enterprises; Man-woman relationships; Television programs.; Video recordings for the hearing impaired.;
