The Origin of Day and Night

In the early times of no night or day, there was a fox and hare who fought over whether there should be light or darkness. The hare needs light to find food, and the fox needs the darkness. This is the story of how they made a compromise that created night and day. Inspired by an Inuit oral story and accompanied by primitive, bright and dark, mixed media illustrations. Also available in Inuktitut language.
