Klappentext

iskwêw pithîsiw nitisithihkâson. My name is Lady of the Thunderbird, and this is my story. In 1944 thirteen-year-old Ilse gets lost in a fierce snowstorm while checking her family's trapline in northern Canada. Separated from her sled dogs, and without food or supplies, Ilse finds herself alone in the unforgiving barrens. She survives freezing temperatures, encounters with wild animals, snow blindness and frostbite. She must rely on Traditional Indigenous Knowledge passed down from her family, and her connection to the land and animals, if she hopes to find her way home. This true story of survival is written by Ilse's granddaughter.
