Answer 1

All the answers are in the following summary. Good luck.

Julie, also called Miyax, experiences a series of dislocations after her father (Kapugen) disappears when hunting seals. She then must live with her aunt Martha, who tries to force a Western education on her. To escape from her aunt, she agrees to marry a mentally retarded neighbor a little older than she is. Her new husband's parents (Naka and Nusan) assure her that "he will be like a brother to you"; but Julie's husband (Daniel), tormented by other boys, tries — "as frightened as she" — to rape her. Julie flees, with some idea of joining a pen-pal (Amy) in San Francisco.

Lost on Alaska's North Shelf with little else but a traditional Inuit knife, Miyax is close to giving up, until she spots a wolf pack. Remembering a story that her father told her, about how he once survived by taking refuge with wolves, Julie realizes she can do the same. Unfortunately, her father left out how he communicated with the wolves. Undaunted, Julie watches the wolves and learns their non-verbal forms of communication. She then uses this knowledge to get the wolves to accept her as a member of the pack. She especially befriends the black furred alpha male, considering him her new father.

The wolves eventually head towards the coast, and Julie, with nowhere else to go, follows them. Along the way, she adopts a golden plover that didn't migrate south, whom she calls "Tornait." Eventually, Julie and the wolves get too close to civilization. Her adopted father, the alpha wolf known as Amaroq, is shot from a plane, and many of others are wounded and scattered. Her grief is intensified by the fact that the hunters didn't even collect the ear to get the bounty on wolves.

After burying her friend, Julie continues on alone until she comes to an Arctic town, called "Kangik." She hears that there is a great hunter there that seems to almost exactly match the description of her father. Going to see the hunter, she discovers that it is indeed her father, who didn't die, but instead abandoned her. Julie is happy, though, until she finds out not only that her father married a white woman named Ellen and adopted Western technology and customs, and plans on sending her to another western style school, he flew the plane that killed the wolves, and has apparently lost all respect for nature. Julie flees back to the wilderness, but when her pet tern dies shortly after she stops for the night, she heads back towards civilization, though she may have any one of several motives, as her reason for returning aren't explained.
