Publisher's Summary

Yaotl and Sascho splashed along the shores of the behcha, spears hefted, watching for the flash of fin to rise to the surface and sparkle in the sunlight. Tender feelings, barely discovered, flushed their faces. Waving their spears, they laughed and teased one another with sprays of newly melted ice water. In the distance, the warning about the kw'ahtıı sounds, but on this fatal day it goes unheard; Yaotl and Sascho fall into the hands of the Indian Agents.

Transport to Fort Providence residential school is only the beginning of their ordeal, for the teachers believe it is their sworn duty to “kill the Indian inside”. All attempts at escape are severely punished, but Yaotl and Sascho, along with two others, will try, beginning a journey of 900 kilometers along the Mackenzie River. Like wild geese, brave hearts together, they are homeward bound.

Highly acclaimed narrator Lisa Cooke Ravensbergen lends her authentic voice to this tale of joy, sorrow, and homecoming, as she weaves her characters and narrator voice together in this triumphant story of Canada's northern people.
