Born and raised in the Arctic, Robert was struck by how little most Canadians actually know about this amazing region of their own country. His first novel, Napachee, was inspired by the desire to teach young people more about the Arctic in an entertaining but realistic fashion. Rob is offering both virtual and in-person sessions and is open to travel. Experience first hand a seven foot narwhal tusk, walrus skull, beadwork, carvings, harpoons and much, much, more!!!
