Description
Siuluk is a very strong man. He’s so strong that people tell him he must be the last of the Tuniit, friendly giants who once lived in the North. Just like those giants, Siuluk is so strong that he can carry an entire walrus over his shoulder. But not everyone believes that Siuluk is strong. One day, when a group of men tease Siuluk about his size, he has to find a way to prove his strength once and for all—but how? Based on traditional stories from the Chesterfield Inlet area of the Kivalliq region of Nunavut, this tale of Siuluk and his legendary strength will captivate young readers.

Carla J, Reviewer
This picture book is based upon an Inuit legend of the Tuniq people. They were giant with exceptional strength. The story is about Tuniq who is teased and not believed that he is strong. While proving his strength, he is finally accepted and believed. The illustrations in this story are wonderful and are able to tell the story as well as the text. This is a great addition to a multi-cultural library, especially one that contains fables, legends and folktales from around the world. Discussions about what the message is in this book will bring out many ideas of acceptance, judging others etc. A winner.
