A bilingual (English and Inuktitut) traditional Inuit story from the North Baffin region. Aulaja must stay alone in camp with only her dog to protect her. She has heard about dangerous land spirits from her father, but she has no idea she will soon encounter one–Mahahaa the Tickler, a being from Inuit mythology who can tickle you to death.
