Ten-year old Meng is homesick and lonely after moving to Fort Frances, Ontario. How will she make friends? Who will want to play with her? Befriended by Wendy, the Metis lady next door, and Pepper, Wendy's rambunctious dog, Meng gradually comes to learn about the vibrant Metis community around her. She's introduced to Metis culture and history, and in the process, learns how to fish, make a shore lunch, and dance the Metis jig. Under the Stars at Rainy River is a children's book about the importance of making friends and being curious. It's also about the generations of Metis who have helped make Fort Frances, and other places in what is now part of the Metis community located throughout Northwestern Ontario, a special place to live today.
