"Pemmican Wars is the first graphic novel in the series A Girl Called Echo."--Back cover.
"Echo Desjardins, a 13-year-old Métis girl adjusting to a new home and school, is struggling with loneliness while separated from her mother. Then an ordinary day in Mr. Bee's history class turns extraordinary, and Echo's life will never be the same. During Mr. Bee's lecture, Echo finds herself transported to another time and place--a bison hunt on the Saskatchewan prairie--and back again to the present. In the following weeks, Echo slips back and forth in time. She visits a Métis camp, travels the old fur-trade routes, and experiences the perilous and bygone era of the Pemmican Wars."--Page 4 of cover.

Short but good submitted by Jinxyluis on August 11, 2021, 2:05pm This volume is super short, but I'm definitely interested to continue the series. The history is introduced well, but the character of Echo feels a bit vague. So many little touches here though that make this book feel quite special.
