About this ebook
Michael Bania
For almost twenty years, Michael Bania lived above the Arctic Circle. While residing in various Inupiat villages, she actively participated in the local culture and developed an understanding and respect for a distinct way of life. Here she met her husband, raised a family, and taught the children who would become the inspiration for Kumak and his tall tales from the far north. Art and illustration is a big part of Michael’s life. She wrote and illustrated her first children’s book at age six. Today she maintains her studio in Southeast Alaska.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I like the sense of easy community portrayed in this book, of all the neighbors companionably riding out "breakup" together and helping find each other's lost oil drums, toys, dogs, etc. The illustrations of families hoisting each other up on the rooftops and waving to their neighbors are particularly beguiling.
