Pakak is in a new foster home, with new people, new food, and new smells. Feeling alone and uncertain, Pakak finds comfort in a secret shared with him by his anaanattiaq, his grandmother, and in the knowledge that he is loved no matter how far away his family may be.
Written as a gift for Inuit children in care by foster parents Kevin and Mary Qamaniq-Mason, this book is lovingly imbued with cultural familiarities that will resonate with children who, like Pakak, are navigating the unknown.
"Like a love poem, this story will resonate in the hearts of both children in foster care and the adults who love them."—Kirkus Reviews
"This is a thoughtful tale about a young boy who longs for home...I Am Loved is an ideal book for promoting meaningful dialogue in early elementary school classrooms as well as providing insights into the Inuit culture and language."—Seattle Book Review
I Am Loved is a touching story that shares with its readers that one does not have to live with family members to be loved by them. This loving story shares the feelings and emotions of a child in foster care and how he knows he is still loved by his family even if he is unable to live with them. This is a great book to share with children who may be feeling lonely as a result of living away from their families. Authors Kevin and Mary Qamaniq-Mason are foster parents and tell this story with compassion for children. . . A great addition to any library.
