In this spooky, wintry tale, Qaunaq Mikkigak and Joanne Schwartz tell the traditional Inuit legend of how fog came to be in the world. In addition to co-authoring this story and Grandmother Ptarmigan, Mikkigak was also an aritst, most famous for her sculpture, but also know dor drawing, story telling and throat singing. Her abilities as a sculpture were developed at first in secret, at a time when only Inuit men were traditional carvers, and she is consequently one of the first Inuit women to become known for their art. Her writing, like her sculpture draws on the traditions of her people in cold, northern regions of Canada.
