Hide and Sneak - Kusugak, Michael Arvaarluk

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; "Don't go too far away. An Ijiraq might hide you, and ... no one will ever find you again." Her mother's warning, however, does little to stop Allashua from following the mythical creature to his hiding place. The fun-loving Ijiraq leads her over hills, across a field, then through a creek until they finally arrive at a cave. As they wait to be "found," the Ijiraq continues to laugh and sing, but Allashua is getting hungry and starting to miss her parents. When the mischievous creature refuses to take her back home Allashua finds a clever way to outwit him - but how will she find her own way back?
