(3) 4-6 Feather has always been interested in her Lakota heritage, but her curiosity turns into a way of life in this contemporary coming-of-age story. When her brother Peter falls ill, the hospital's modern medicine has no effect. Feather and Grandfather go on a New York City vision quest to save Peter and initiate Feather into her place as a Lakota healer. The novel's original premise is refreshing.
