This book is a treasure. As an adult the language was not too young for me. The story shines a light on the disgusting history of so-called us and so-called canada and the residential sch**ls. They are an absolute disgrace and part of the ongoing genocide against Indigenous People of Turtle Island. I really loved the dreams and visions, the family aspect, and summer Rez life.
This is my second book for #25for25
