Nyla loves to make string figures. She's getting pretty good at making different shapes and sometimes she even makes them when her mom asks her to help out around camp, or late at night when she is supposed to be sleeping.
Nyla's grandmother warns her that children who play string games when they are not supposed to are at risk of meeting Tuutarjuk, the creature from Inuit stories that challenges children to string games--and carries them off if they don't win.
Nyla's sure her grandmother is just kidding. And anyway, if Tuutarjuk were real, Nyla knows she could beat it at making string figures. Late one night, Nyla's boastfulness is tested when Tuutarjuk appears in her tent.
Will she meet the creature's challenge, or be carried off into the night?
