Summary
Shi-shi-etko just has four days until she will have to leave her family and everything she knows to attend residential school. She spends her last precious days at home treasuring and appreciating the beauty of her world — the dancing… sunlight, the tall grass, each shiny rock, the tadpoles in the creek, her grandfather’s paddle song. Grades K-3. 2005.
