Fire Keeper's Daughter is a powerful tale that depicts Native American culture and the resilience of the human spirit. At only 18, Daunis shows a great persistance to defend not only her loved ones but her tribe. She faces down perilous situations throughout the novel and continues to stand up for her beliefs. Her fight is inspiring even if she doesn't get the traditional ending we'd hope she'd receive.

The topics are heavy and the ending is
realistic
but also shows the healing that can happen. I loved all the small pieces of culture shared about the Anishinaabeg. This a book that shows both trauma and healing.
