Produktinformationen "Rattlesnake Mesa"
After the death of the beloved grandmother who raised her, seven-year EdNah goes to live with a father she hardly knows on a reservation miles away. Just as she begins to feel at home in this unfamiliar place, EdNah is sent by her father to an off-reservation Indian Boarding School. At boarding school EdNah and other Native American children are forced to abandon their Indian culture and traditions and adapt to a rigorous schedule of schooling, religious indoctrination, and vocational training. Everything is new and strange. Again faced with adversity, EdNah learns, through heartache and humor, to rely on herself and her community of newfound friends. Returning to the reservation after her first year at school, EdNah can more deeply appreciate the world she left behind her people including the father who sent her away. Told squarely from the child's point of view, EdNah's story will captivate readers and quickly draw them into the circle of her life.
