I wish I had known sooner about Jacque­line Kari Bos’s I Heart the Arc­tic book when it first came out. It is a fully illus­trated mini book inspired by arc­tic cul­tures, Inuit myth and the Aurora Borealis.

I Heart the Arc­tic was inspired after a year-long series Jacque­line worked on. The book itself seems very pre­cious. It’s self pub­lished, made from a vari­ety of dif­fer­ent paper stocks, and has a hand-sewn spine. Her first run was of 50 books, but they quickly sold out and she ran a sec­ond edi­tion of 150 books!

If you’re look­ing your arc­tic acces­sories, look no fur­ther than to buy some of the hand-sewn hearts to go a long with the book!
