"In this acclaimed book, readers meet thirteen-year-old twins L�eon and �Elo�ise who live in Matimekush, an Innu community in Northern Quebec. While L�eon spends all his free time playing hockey, and wondering how he can prove he has the talent to make it big in a place with no competition, �Elo�ise works on a school project that opens her mind to the history of her people -- their victories and their battles lost. But when their father gets sick and needs treatment almost 1000 km from home, and someone from their village mysteriously disappears, the twins learn lessons about the fragility of humanity and the dangers of the land they call home."-- Provided by publisher.
