In this tale set in northern Manitoba and told in both English and Cree, brothers Joe and Cody go searching for the ateek (caribou) and become part of a magical adventure. "Joe and Cody are brothers who follow the caribou (ateek) all year long. Joe plays the accordion (kitoochigan) and Cody dances to entice the wandering caribou. But when thousands of caribou heed their call, the boys become part of a magical adventure. Told in English and Cree, Tomson Highway's portrait of the land, peoples, and customs of northern Manitoba is a tribute to a passing way of life"--Back cover.
