Aurora is a brave and resourceful Inuk girl. When her family goes missing while on a hunting trip, she embarks on a perilous mission to find them. In her travels Aurora must face both the harsh Arctic elements and her own fears, but she does not do so alone: she finds allies in a mother polar bear, Mama Nanuk, and her cubs. Once she is home and reunited with her parents, Aurora's story of grit and determination becomes an inspiration to the people in her village. Beautifully illustrated by the author, Aurora's Journey is a celebration of individual resilience in the face of tough times.
