Set in a 13th century polar community, a young boy's destiny transforms him from a frightened child into a courageous hero. Illuak, a Too-lee boy, has been told by his grandmother that it is his fate to save his people from a bear. But the mere thought of a polar bear makes Illuak's stomach churn and he lives in fear of this destined encounter. When Illuak summons the courage to rescue a Northman (Viking) child from a polar bear he realises there is a far greater challenge involved in the prophecy - two very different cultures are about to collide head-on. |

The story of two cultures colliding due to the fear of a young boy forced to save Viking children from a bear. A little slow to begin but overall it was quite a good story - enjoyable for the girls in my class. They were able to identify with the characters and use graphic organisers to record information from the story.
