Lost at Windy River
A True Story of Survival
Trina Rathgeber, Alina Pete (Illustrator)
Written by the granddaughter of the main character, Ilse Schweder, this book tells the true story of how a young Indigenous girl survived nine days lost in a snowstorm in northern Canada in 1944, and of how as an older woman, she began telling her stories in schools, taking her story back from Farley Mowat, who wrote about it in People of the Deer.
