A Stranger at Home A True Story

A Stranger at Home A True Story by Christy Jordan-Fenton, Margaret Pokiak-Fenton, Liz Amini-Holmes, published by Annick Press in 2011.

Margaret can't wait to see her family, but her homecoming is not what she expected. Traveling to be reunited with her family in the arctic, 10-year-old Margaret Pokiak can hardly contain her excitement. It's been two years since her parents delivered her to the school run by the dark-cloaked nuns and brothers. Coming ashore, Margaret spots her family, but her mother barely recognizes her, screaming, "Not my girl." Margaret realizes she is now marked as an outsider. And Margaret is an outsider: she has forgotten the language and stories of her people, and she can't even stomach the food her mother prepares.

A lovely addition to your coffee table or bookshelf, and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves home and interior design.
