Book description
Before there was a little house on the prairie, there was a tipi on the prairie. Rose is a young Métis-Ojibwe girl who has traveled far with her family for the bi-annual buffalo hunt made up of hundreds of other Métis families. The ritual of the hunt has been practiced for generations, and each one must see them through the next six months. But in recent years, the buffalo population has dwindled, and after days on the hunt, there are no buffalo to be found. Can Rose help her family find the herd that will enable them to survive the long winter? In this beautiful and dramatic story, Carole Lindstrom and Aly McKnight show readers how life was lived by indigenous communities in the late 1800s.
