Part 1: The Trance

          This book is divided into three separate parts. I think the first part is called The Trance because the villagers have forgotten the old ways and are using the technology available. The men hunt with snowmobiles, rifles, and .22. They don't have the "songs" anymore. Despite that the old man Oogruk has decided to keep the ways before the white man came. He doesn't use electricity and has a vast collection of the weapons. clothes and other things that the people used to use.
        Russel finally used the sled and took a ride with the dogs. I thought the dogs wouldn't listen to him but they cooperated with him. They were still fat after sitting and eating for two years. I could imagine how amazing it would be to ride in a dogsled.

I think by putting the book in three parts is a great strategy.
