Alego by Ningeokuluk Teevee (Groundwood Press)
http://www.groundwoodbooks.com/gw_titles.cfm?pub_id=1374
This book came across the cataloging desk yesterday, so I will preface by saying I haven't had time to do a close reading or investigate the author. I have to admit that I had never seen a book in Inuktitut before and I'm definitely more curious about the language after reading Alego. Although the pictures aren't a style that I personally enjoy, the text captures a child's sense of curiosity about the natural world without being sentimental.
