Industry Reviews
This is a book everyone should read.--Betty Gelean"edwardsmagazinebookclub.com" (07/19/2011)
This memoir, detailing a woeful piece of Canadian history and demonstrating Margaret's strength of character, compassion, courage and her willingness to sacrifice herself for her family's sake, gives the reader a lot to ponder. Highly recommended.--Shelbey Krahn"Canadian Materials" (02/17/2012)
This tale provides a compelling and moving story of a girl searching for the strength to find her place in the world. The writing is unpretentious and accessible and readers who enjoyed the first book will find this an interesting follow-up. Vivid paintings are a beautiful accompaniment to the storytelling. Photographs from Pokiak Fenton's own collection add important points of reference for readers looking to visualize the characters and the unique setting of the Arctic Circle. A welcome addition to biography collections.--Jody Kopple"School Library Journal" (12/01/2011)
While it may not have the same drama and tension of the first memoir, this tale provides a compelling and moving story of a girl searching for the strength to find her place in the world.--Jody Kopple"School Library Journal" (12/01/2011)
Olemaun's spirit and determination shine through this moving memoir.
Without being graphic or overwhelming, the Fentons recreate a tragic moment in Canadian history through the innocent reflections of a child...a must for any classroom library.
