About the Author


Jaypeetee Arnakak is a linguist, translator, and educator. He spent many years many years as a policy analyst specializing in Inuit culture, language and education issues. He is the editor of Unikkaaqtuat Qikiqtaninngaaqtut, a collection of thirty-three versions of traditional stories, transcribed and edited from oral recordings of ten Inuit elders from two High Arctic communities, Arctic Bay and Igloolik. He has also adapted several traditional Inuit stories into children's storybooks. Nuria Muro Gio is a Peruvian illustrator who was born and raised in Lima. Nuria's art was inspired by Genndy Tartakovsky's work on Nuria's favourite childhood shows. However, Nuria is glad her own style has evolved a lot through the years and is now characterized by lineless shapes, textures, and rich, bright colours, all made digitally. She loves sharing art with her favourite fan communities, which fills her with joy. She also loves exploring her own thoughts through doodles and working on art about everyday life in Peru to rediscover the magic of her own city. When she is not drawing, you'll find her baking bread or discovering new music with her best friend.
