Three brothers get caught in a blizzard but manage to stay safe through hard work.
Written by a grade 4 class with their teacher, this re-imagining of the classic Three Little Pigs tale shows how hard work can pay off in the end!
The Three Hunters is a story that follows Akagaq, the youngest brother of three, who is confident but forgetful. When he gets caught in a blizzard, he makes a tent, but it is no match for the powerful winds.
Trapped in the cold, Akagaq is helped by his brother Tiriaq. Tiriaq digs into a snowdrift for shelter, but the wind is still too strong and blows out their lamp.
Akkiutaq, the eldest brother, arrives to save them and brings them to the iglu he has carefully built. The wind threatens to destroy the iglu as well, but the shelter proves strong, and the brothers are safe.
The brothers learn an important lesson about paying attention to their Elders and taking care in what they do.
