In this beautifully illustrated book, a determined young
Anishnaabe girl in search of adventure goes on a transformative
journey into a forest on her traditional territory. She is
joined by a chorus of her ancestors in red dresses, who tell
her they remember what it was like to be carefree and wild,
too. Soon, though, the girl is challenged by a monster named
Hate, who envelops her in a cloud of darkness. She climbs a
mountain to evade the monster, and, with the help of her
matriarchs and the power of Thunderbird, the monster is held at
bay. Together the young girl and her ancestors beat their drums
in song and support, giving the girl the confidence she needs
to become a changemaker in the future, capable of fending off
any monster in her way.Book, 40 pages.
