Description
Garnet Raven's life has been marked by displacement and uncertainty. As a young boy, he was taken from his home and placed in foster care, only to find himself alone and adrift in the city. But when he receives a surprise letter from his native family, Garnet is forced to confront his past and consider a new path. This powerful coming-of-age story follows Garnet as he returns to his Ojibway Indian reserve and begins to discover his sense of place and self. With the guidance of Keeper, a wise and enigmatic figure who teaches him about the ancient traditions and ways of his people, Garnet's life is forever changed. Through its poignant and humorous portrayal of Native life and philosophy, "Keeper'n Me" offers a fresh perspective on the redemptive power of community and tradition.
