{"product_id":"wenjack-30407","title":"Wenjack O\/P","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis compelling novella recounts the true story of 12 year-old Chanie Wenjack who died tragically in October 1966 while walking the railroad tracks towards his northern Ontario home, after fleeing Indian Residential School. Chanie suffered physical and sexual abuse, in addition to enduring continuous efforts by the school's staff to strip him of his proud Ojibwa identity. Wenjack is told from two perspectives, alternating between Chaney as first-person narrator and individual creatures of the woods and river who each take a turn following Chaney on his perilous journey. Award-winning novelist Boyden concludes this book spearking to the intergenerational trauma caused by residential schools and the responsibility of all Canadians to take part in reconciliation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43664551608380,"sku":null,"price":6.6,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/3677\/6508\/files\/9780735233386.jpg?v=1762976577","url":"https:\/\/nssbb.ednet.ns.ca\/products\/wenjack-30407","provider":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
