Line 12:
* [[Big Badass Wolf]]: The story is chock full of them, but most notably, Amaroq, the alpha male.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: Sure at the end Julie makes it out of the tundra and is united with a long-lost member of her family, but her surrogate parent is dead, her pet is dead and the Eskimo way of life is over.
* [[Death by Newbery Medal]]: Alas, poor
* [[Deliberate Values Dissonance]]: Certain foods and smells are described as being delicious or wonderful, but given that these items tend to be things like raw owl entrails and wolf piss, it's more [[Squick]] than anything. The former is an actual Eskimo delicacy, and the latter is due to Miyax's experience with wolves.
* [[Disappeared Dad]]: Miyax's father disappears while kayaking and is presumed to be dead.
* [[Floating Head Syndrome]]: Most editions of the book are victim to this.
* [[Head Pet]]: Tornait the Arctic tern.
