Description
In Road Allowance Kitten: Full Circle, Madeline, Rosie, and their cat, Kitten continue to share adventures. This time with a visit to a circus. However, Madeline is unexpectedly diagnosed with tuberculosis and is sent to a sanitarium to recover; sadly, a common experience for Indigenous Peoples in the early twentieth century. While healing there, Madeline resumes her friendship with Rosie and Kitten, albeit from a distance, and the trio demonstrates the enduring strength of true friendship and the importance of hope when faced with adversity. The family finds itself full circle, back on a road allowance in the valley so they can be closer to Madeline. Richly steeped in Michif culture and vividly illustrated by Christina Johns, this uplifting story leaves young readers with a strong impression of Métis resilience and pride. Road Allowance Kitten: Full Circle is a welcome addition to Wilfred Burton’s acclaimed historical fiction series, which includes Road Allowance Kitten and Road Allowance Kitten: Broken Promises.
