Spirit Lights. Returning to the Arctic after a two-year absence, twelve-year-old Jean-Paul has overcome his old fear of the dark, but discovers that his best Inuit friend, Chinook, is terrified of “spirit lights.”
Fans of Gary Paulsen, Scott O’Dell, and Jack London will enjoy reading about Inuit culture and building igloos. They will experience fear and danger when they open a sleepy polar bear’s den with Jean-Paul and his Inuit friends, and will share a lonely, hazardous dogsled ride across the tundra and through the wilderness.
Two cultures meet in this coming-of-age novel for middle-grade readers ages 9 & up. Sequel to The Haunted Igloo, Spirit Lights is a *must read* before the exciting new young-adult novel, Drum Dance.
From Bonnie Turner’s early interest in huskies, dogsleds, and the Inuit culture came her first book for children, The Haunted Igloo.
After that book was published, Turner visited classrooms with a life-size Inuit doll and lectured students on the importance of reading and writing . . . and passed out “polar bear” hugs along with her autograph. Spirit Lights is the long-awaited sequel to that book.
Bonnie Turner lives in Wisconsin.
