Inuktitut: Martha Peet E1

Martha Peet was born in an igloo in Taloyoak, where only four other families lived. Martha grew up with parents who were closely tied to the land. Her parents were "nomads" and found it difficult to stay in one place for a long time. As a result, she grew up travelling with them by dog sled. She is a freelance interpreter, translator, and author of the Inuktitut Pocket Book.

In her first story, she shares what life was like for an Inuk child.
