- Book Synopsis
- On a cold winter morning in 1952, Patsy Lamondin wakes to the day electricity will finally be connected to her small town along the Magnetawan River. Patsy and her siblings buzz with excitement, eagerly awaiting the ceremony being held at the center of town. The Lamondins have lived along the waters of Georgian Bay and the Magnetawan River for generations. They are a Métis family who love music, dancing and being outdoors, and Patsy ponders how electricity will change all of their daily lives. What she knows for sure is that, whatever changes, she will always feel she belongs here.
- About The Author
- Pat Lamondin Skene retired from the world of banking to find her voice. She is a Métis author of several books for children, including the picture book Lights along the River and the Orca Echoes titles One Beaded Earring, What a Hippopota-Mess!, Rhyme Stones and Monster Lunch. Most of Pat's inspiration comes from her many travels, and memories of her childhood growing up in a Métis community on the Magnetawan River. Pat keeps her imagination fed and watered in Oakville, Ontario.
