Description

Captures the sympathy of readers and holds their attentionAn age-appropriate telling by an Indigenous creative team of a tragic historical period.School Library Journal, starred reviewThe true story of how Indigenous girls at a residential school sewed secret pockets into their dresses to hide food and survive.

They secretly gathered materials and sewed at nighttime, then used their pockets to hide apples, carrots and pieces of bread to share with the younger girls.Based on the auth
