My Ittu: The Biggest, Best Grandpa cover

Who's brave enough to wrestle a grumpy polar bear? My Ittu!

This heartwarming book about a little girl’s larger-than-life love for her larger-than-life grandfather will charm grandparents and little ones alike.

Maniq loves her ittu (short for ittupajaaq, an Inuktitut word for grandfather). He’s brave—enough to wrestle the grumpiest polar bear, if he ever needed to! He’s tall—enough to see over the tallest mountain tops. He’s generous—enough to walk through a blizzard to make sure others have delicious food to eat. And above all, he loves his grandkids, every single one of them—and there must be close to one hundred, by Maniq’s count at least!

"[Q] uietly celebrates the special relationship that can exist between a grandchild and a grandparent. As such, the book has universal appeal."—CM: Canadian Review of Materials
