"“Before schools were introduced to the Inuit, we were taught by our relatives.” In this picture book, Monica Ittusardjuat shares how she learned knowledge and skills in a time before being taken to residential school. She describes how children learned through playing games, imitating grown-ups, and observing adults around them." -- publisher
