Putuguq & Kublu by Danny Christopher, illustrated by Astrid Arijanto.
Inhabit Media, Iqualuit, Nunavut, Canada, 2017.
Early reader graphic novel, 40 pages.
Not leveled.
Putuguq and his dog are trying to play a trick on big sister Kublu. While running across the tundra they meet Grandpa who reminds them to be careful around the inuksuit. Of course then Putuguq has to try to lift his own stone… but the results aren’t what he expected!
This is the first book of a graphic novel series called Putuguq & Kublu. We had already read the second title (without realizing that it was the second in a series) called Putuguq & Kublu and the Qualupaliit! I didn’t see any more in this series yet, but would definitely continue to buy them if more are released.
This is the introductory book, which shows us a little about our favorite siblings and their world. I’m not very familiar with tundra seasons but am guessing that this takes place in the spring or summer, because flowers are shown blooming.
