Siblings Putuguq and Kublu are out on the ice when their grandfather, passing by on his snowmobile after hunting, stops and tells them a story about the Qalupalik, a creature that lives beneath the sea ice waiting for children to steal. “Seriously?” says Kublu. She knows her grandfather is just trying to scare them. “Under the ice?” Putuguq asks nervously. Putuguq has convinced his big sister to let him and his little dog Lulu come along as she heads off to meet her friend Lisa. But what are those strange footprints near the shore? And where is Lisa? A short, easy graphic novel with a sudden surprise and a hint of lingering mystery is set in an Inuit village. The culturally specific details of the characters’ lives and the warm, humorous dynamic among them, especially the two siblings, make for a welcome new series (the first book, published in 2018, is Putuguq & Kublu). A map of the village opens the story, and more about the Qalupalik is found at book’s end. (Ages 5–8)
