Tanna’s Puppy is the third installment of authors Rachel and Sean Qitsualik-Tinsley’s acclaimed series of children’s books that explore Rachel’s childhood experiences with Arctic animals.  Training dogs has been a strong Inuit tradition for generations. Sled dogs in Inuit communities are valued working animals with a clear and important purpose. Tanna has always known that dogs are not pets. They are not meant to live in houses. Then one day, Tanna is given a puppy to raise. Tanna is sure her father will not let her keep Dandy as a pet. She eventually convinces her father to let Dandy into the house, just as a test. Will Dandy’s love for her owners win Father over to having a dog as a pet? A heartwarming tale of the unique realities of Northern life and the changing definitions of what it means to be a family. Praise for the Tanna's Animals series! "Based on Burt Award–winning, Inuit-Cree author Rachel Qitsualik-Tinsley’s childhood memories of growing up on Baffin Island, this outstanding picture book shares essential teachings on the importance of responsibility, patience, and respect."—? Quill & Quire, Starred Review ?"Tanna’s Owl by Rachel and Sean Qitsualik-Tinsley, illustrated by Yong Ling Kang (Inhabit Media, 5-7) perfectly captures the sense of connection between the Inuit and the Arctic environment they live in."— The Globe and Mail
