Abstract
"In the spring, the Arctic tundra is bursting with life. Plants and animals have endured a long, bitter winter, waiting for their chance to peek out through the deep snow. But there are also dangers lurking on the tundra in dark caves and beyond distant hills; creatures that hunters hope never to encounter lying in wait.
When a lone hunter named Quannguaviniq takes a walk on the spring tundra, his journey soon becomes a life-or-death struggle when he meets one of the tundra's most fearsome, and hungry, inhabitants — a deadly tuurngaq!
Written by Cape Dorset elder Quanaq Mikkigak and highly acclaimed picture book author Joanne Schwartz, The Legend of the Fog brings a centuries-old Inuit traditional tale to life for modern readers."--Back cover.
