Description

It's 1865, and Angelique and her family are hunting buffalo across the prairies, along with other Metis families. When horse thieves raid their camp one night, more than the horses are in danger: the buffalo hunt-and the Metis' very survival—are at stake.

Angelique, along with her brother, Joseph, and friend François, is determined to bring their beloved horses home, even if she has to take on the raiders herself!

Welcome back to OUR CANADIAN GIRL, and the continuing adventures of Angelique and many other smart, spirited, and courageous girls. They come from different places and times in Canadian history, and each of them meets some ordinary—and extraordinary—challenges in her day-to-day life.
