Kamik Takes the Lead

Jake and Kamik are finally ready to run their first dog sled race with a full team! But there is a lot to do to prepare, and Jake must follow his uncle’s lead if he and his dogs are going to be ready for the early spring race. Books in the Kamik series share traditional dog-rearing practices and dog-training techniques from the remote community of Arviat, Nunavut, through the life memories of community members. These books preserve the rich history of working dogs in Nunavut and celebrate the traditional bond between Inuit and their sled dogs. An Educator's Guide is available in English and Inuktitut.

The fourth of the Kamik series, other books in this series include:

• Kamik: An Inuit Puppy Story
• Kamik’s First Sled
• Kamik Joins the Pack
