Kumak's House A Tale of the Far North Written and illustrated by Michael Bania At the edge of a great frozen river, Kumak and his family lived in their house by the willows. Though their house was warm and cozy, Kumak was not happy. His wife was not happy. His sons and daughters were not happy. His wife’s mother was not happy. “Too small, this house,” said Kumak. “I will go to see Aana Lulu. She will know what to do.” Set in an Inupiat Eskimo village in the northwest Arctic, KUMAK’S HOUSE is a folktale that conveys a humorous lesson on life with Kumak as the foil. As Kumak treks again and again to elder Aana Lulu for advice, the book’s charming illustrations incite laughter and introduce children to traditional Inupiat activities and animals of the Arctic.
