Shawna Thomson grew up in southern Ontario but has called Nunavut home since 2011 when she moved to Taloyoak. She currently works as an educator in Iqaluit, where she lives with her husband and their two dogs. Since moving to Nunavut, she has always been fascinated by stories of the giants and the little people. When she is not writing or teaching, she enjoys running, yoga, going hiking with her dogs, or reading historical fiction.

Iviit doesn't want to stay at her camp and clean skins. It's so boring! She would much rather go exploring and sing and dance.
One day, Iviit sneaks away from her camp and meets a new friend named Kaaktuq. But Kaaktuq is no ordinary friend-he is a giant! Iviit and Kaaktuq spend a fun summer together, but Iviit soon realizes she has a giant problem on her hands. Will Iviit be able to help Kaaktuq without her family ruining her plans?
