PRODUCT SUMMARY


For sale in U.S. and Canada only-- Meet Tinka, a 13-year-old girl from the tiny town of Kulusk, located on Greenland's eastern coast. Tinka's Inuit family of eight shares strong family ties and believes in always helping one another. When not at school, Tinka's responsibilities include fetching water from the well, helping to prepare meals and looking after her younger siblings. She enjoys practicing the traditional Inuit handicrafts of sewing sealskin and pearling. Join Tinka as she attends a festive family party, complete with native attire, food and music, including Tinka's performance of a traditional drum dance! A Teacher's Guide is included and available online.

Part of the multivolume Families Around the World Video Series.
