This book packs a lot in a slim 104 pages. A beautiful story covering a very dark part of Canada's history and its treatment of Indigenous children being sent to residential schools, and the abuse they endured. Summer is visiting her grandparents with her mom and younger brother Sage. They pass by a former residential school and learn that their Mosom (grandfather) had been sent to a school when he was only 5 years ago. Summer starts having dreams about a girl named Buffalo Dreamer who ran away from a residential school and got caught in a blizzard. She sets about discovering if the dreams are based on a real person.

Ultimately while the story is steeped in a sad part of history, this is ultimately a book about hope and how future generations can heal and thrive, while learning about their ancestors' pasts.
