This informative volume uses vivid, close-up photos and well-written passages to introduce readers to igloos, one of the world's most intriguing traditional Native American structures. The author provides fascinating facts about the native Inuits who built these unique snow dwellings, as well as the materials and construction methods they used to create these one-of-a-kind buildings. This title briefly discusses why igloos were used in the Arctic (central Alaska to northern Canada), how the Inuits gathered materials and prepared the igloo sites, how they built an igloo from bottom to top, what they did inside these buildings, why they created igloo villages and special igloos, and how they stayed warm in these snow structures. This interesting introduction to igloos also contains a glossary, a list of books for further reading, an Internet resource, and an index. This captivating book makes a wonderful reference book for beginning readers and young researchers. This title is part of the "Native American Life" series.
