Awsome book!

I am intrigued with these figures. They seem to have a certain spirituality about them. As a guide to making your own or veiwing different styles, this is a great book!
Nice project, wish there was more history

I purchased this book to use during our study of various continents, to give ourselves a North American project to do. (I am a homeschooling parent). The book will work for that purpose. I was hoping that it would have a little more information on the use of the Inuksuk, with examples of people using them historically. Some of the other parts on how to put one together could certainly have been condensed to allow room for more history and culture. Nonetheless, it is an appropriate activity for my first grader, and a good stepping stone to get her looking into the culture with other resources.
