This was such a beautifully impactful story, and such a powerful continuation to 'Firekeepers Daughter'. I also loved the narrator, Isabella Star LeBlanc. She made it quite easy to understand some of the Ojibwe pronunciations that I didn’t understand from the first book, because I’m not from the community. And this made the story richer, deeply meaningful. It also made me cry at the end and I think that is something that Angeline does very well in her books. 😅 She always makes me cry.
