In My Anaana's Amautik

Nadia Sammurtok lovingly invites the reader into the amautik the pouch in the back of a mother's parka used to carry a child to experience everything through the eyes of the baby nestled inside, from the cloudlike softness of the pouch to the glistening sound of Anaana's laughter. Sweet and soothing, this book offers a unique perspective that will charm readers of all ages. (From Inhabit Media)
