Summary:
"From award-winning authors Richard Van Camp and Monique Gray Smith come two honest and memorable middle-grade novellas on residential schools and reconciliation. The novellas are bound together in a 'flip-book' format, which offers the intended audiences two important perspectives in one package. "--From publisher.
Lucy
and
Lola
are 11-year-old twins. The girls are spending their summer on Gabriola Island with their Kookum (grandmother) while their mother studies for the bar exam. During their time with Kookum, the girls begin to learn about her experiences being sent - and having to send their mother- to Residential school. Ultimately, they discover what it means to be intergenerational survivors. -- inside cover.
This is the story of 12-year-old Dene Cho, who is angry that his people are losing their language, traditions, and ways of being. Elder Snowbird is there to answer some of Dene Cho's questions, and to share their history including the impact Residential schools continue to have on their people. It is through this conversation with Snowbird that Dene Cho not only begins to find himself, but begins to realize that understanding the past can ultimately change the future. -- inside cover.
