Showcasing a female Indigenous artist: An exploration of a singularly important female Inuk artist. Ningiukulu is a self taught artist from Kinngait. She works with coloured pencils, felt pens, chalk, fine liners, and acrylic and watercolour paints. An invaluable classroom resource: An essential resource in any Grade 2-3 classroom (specifically for the art curriculum). Perfect for helping Southern students expand their knowledge of Northern artists and art in general. Also has strong library or museum gift potential. Indigenous author: The author, Napatsi Folger, grew up in Iqaluit. She is the author of Joy of Apex from Inhabit Media.
She also works for Inuit Art Quarterly. Educationally reviewed: All our publications are reviewed intensively by a team of Northern educators and language experts to ensure they are culturally authentic and that stories and information are considered in an educational context. Developed at the recommendation of educators: We work closely with educators in the North to create resources that help fill the gaps in their classrooms. This book was developed at the recommendation of teachers who were looking for more non-fiction, art-focused books to share with their students. This book is also perfect for introducing the biography/memoir genre to young readers.
