SCOE U: Growth Track Book Club: Sisters in the Wind
Sisters in the Wind, by Indigenous author Angeline Boulley, tells the story of Lucy, a young woman who has been navigating the foster system since her father’s death five years ago. Along the way, she uncovers long-buried truths her father tried to hide, most notably, her Ojibwe heritage and a complicated family history. Lucy soon realizes that she may have relatives who could offer what the foster system never could: a true sense of home, safety, and belonging.
