Summary

"When Nellie Winters was 11 years old, she was sent to attend the Nain Boarding School, a residential school 400 kilometres from her home. In this memoir, she recalls life before residential school, her experiences at the school, and what it was like to come home. Accompanied by the author's original illustrations, this moving, often funny memoir sheds light on the experiences of Inuit residential school survivors in Labrador."--, Provided by publisher
