490 1  The Misewa saga ;|v1 
520    "Morgan and Eli, two Indigenous children forced away from 
       their families and communities, are brought together in a 
       foster home in Winnipeg, Manitoba. They each feel 
       disconnected, from their culture and each other, and 
       struggle to fit in at school and at their new home -- 
       until they find a secret place, walled off in an 
       unfinished attic bedroom. A portal opens to another 
       reality, Askí, bringing them onto frozen, barren grounds, 
       where they meet Ochek (Fisher). The only hunter supporting
       his starving community, Misewa, Ochek welcomes the human 
       children, teaching them traditional ways to survive. But 
       as the need for food becomes desperate, they embark on a 
       dangerous mission. Accompanied by Arik, a sassy Squirrel 
       they catch stealing from the trapline, they try to save 
       Misewa before the icy grip of winter freezes everything--
       including them".--Page [2] of cover.
