Throughout
her life, Little Wolf has been troubled by the injustice she sees all
around her. When she was young, she was bullied for her Indigenous
heritage. Her mother, White Raven, spent ten years in a residential
school, separated from her family and isolated from her culture. Little
Wolf's own children are growing up in a different, more open society,
but hatred and racism still exist. Little Wolf worries about the world
her daughters will inherit. One night, a vivid dream helps her realize
her own strength as a leader and peacemaker in her community. Told with
powerful imagery and symbolism, Abalone Woman is the third book
in the Little Wolf series, which presents themes of racism, trauma, and
family unity through relatable, age-appropriate narratives.
