Alone at the Top of the World: An Inuit Folktale

This enchanting folktale is about, Uki, a little girl who adopts a polar bear cub who has just lost his mother defending him from two angry male bears. Together they grow as a family and face life’s hard challenges in the dramatically changing climate of the frozen Arctic. Learn about life in the Arctic, as the illustrations create indelible landscapes, spark your imagination through the tense confluence of nature and industry, that allows each character to articulate the beauty, conflict – and ultimately the answers – we all seek. Alone at the Top of the World brings us a story we should share with our children, artwork that paints an enduring legacy for a special place, and issues that always will deserve robust debate and decisive action.
