The Gift of the Great Buffalo - Hardcover
by Carole Lindstrom (Author), Aly McKnight (Illustrator)
In this beautiful and dramatic story, bestselling author Carole Lindstrom and illustrator Aly McKnight show readers how life was lived by Indigenous communities, offering the true history of life on the prairie.
Before there was a little house on the prairie, there was a tipi on the prairie. Rose is a young M?tis-Ojibwe girl who has traveled far with her family for the biannual buffalo hunt made up of hundreds of other M?tis families. The ritual of the hunt has been practiced for generations, and each hunt must see the community 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?Carole Lindstrom is the author of the New York Times bestselling and Caldecott Award-winning We Are Water Protectors; My Powerful Hair; and Autumn Peltier, Water Warrior. She is Anishinaabe/M?tis and is a proud member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Ojibwe Indians. She was born and raised in Nebraska and currently makes her home in Maryland.
