The Inuksuk Book (Wow Canada! Collection)

Where my eldest grandson attends school (kindergarten), a lesson in Inuksuk is taught. The class built one for the school raffle, and each child created his/her own. My grandson asked if we could build one in my backyard, and create a waterfall around it. Of course, I answered "yes". This book proved to be a valuable learning resource for both my grandson and me.

Great lead-in to the book "Make Your Own Inuksuk" and helpful for children to understand the history and use of Inuksuk's.

Have already made two and am gathering stones for more. The history is well written.

This book has some very nice artwork, but I found it had little to do with Inuksuk. It might be better titled as a young person's book on the Canadian Arctic. 'Very touchy-feely, with little hard information.

The description did not indicate that it was a children's/young person's publication, so I was somewhat disappointed. Nevertheless the book was quite informative.

the description of the item said "Like new" or something to that effect. However, the recipient said there were torn pages and black smudges, not something you are going to put on the coffee table which was my intention. Good content .

I learned of the Inuksuk when I visited the Canadian Rockies 2 years ago. They were the talk of the shopkeepers since they will be the next symbol for the 2010 Winter Olympics. They represent the markers that were used as landmarks to mark the way in this land of permafrost and snow.

One of my teachers and her students love, love this book! The bright colours, shapes and the story are absolutely fabulous :)

This is a book used in schools to teach students about the Inuksuk it is a great teaching tool. Schools should by this book/.
