| | Synopsis
|
"When a young girl helps tend to her grandmother's garden, she
begins to notice things that make her curious. Why does her
grandmother have long, braided hair and beautifully colored clothing?
Why does she speak another language and spend so much time with her
family? As she asks her grandmother about these things, she is told
about life in a residential school a long time ago, where all of
these things were taken away. "When We Were Alone" is a story about a
difficult time in history, and, ultimately, one of empowerment and
strength."—Book jacket.
