Thank you to NetGalley and Vanita Books for the ARC. I appreciate this especially more due to my interest in the Inuit and other native tribes, including prehistoric groups of peoples throughout to modern times.

Magic Words by Edward Field.
And, yes! I knew the moment I saw the first page that this was the work of Mike Blanc again. Brilliant, beautiful illustrations once again. They truly make the book even more powerful than anything I read as a child.
The story of 'Magic Words' is a modern translation of an Inuit story from 1965!!! As a poem it shows the connection the Arctic peoples have with the natural world around them.
I've always enjoyed good prose, poetry being close to the heart.
A lot of people thinks that words are meaningless now and hold no power, but it's a new power, a power that we can join with other voices.
People forget...
Beautiful poem that left me thinking about the future.
Signing off
