500    Adapted from the stop-motion animated film of the same 
       name, written and directed by Amanda Strong. 
520    "On a journey to uncover her family's story, Spotted Fawn 
       travels through time and space to reclaim connection to 
       ancestors, language, and the land--creating a path forward
       in this essential graphic novel. In the dreamworld she 
       bears witness to a mountain of buffalo skulls. They stand 
       as a ghostly monument to the slaughter of the Plains bison
       to near extinction-- a key tactic to starve and contain 
       the Indigenous People onto reservations. On this path, 
       Spotted Fawn knows she must travel through her own family 
       history to confront the harsh realities of the past and 
       reignite her connection to her people and the land. Her 
       darkroom becomes a portal, and her photographs allow her 
       glimpses into the lives of her relatives over the course 
       of four chapters of this book, which follow the phases of 
       the moon. Time and space become unlocked and unfurl in 
       front of her eyes. Guided by her ancestors, Spotted Fawn's
       travels through the past allow her to come into full face-
       -like the moon itself. Adapted from the acclaimed stop-
       motion animated film of the same name, written and 
       directed by Amanda Strong, Four Faces of the Moon brings 
       the oral and written history of the Michif, Cree, Nakoda 
       and Anishinaabe Peoples and their cultural link to the 
       buffalo alive on the page. Deeply resonant and beautifully
       rendered, this graphic novel retelling is essential 
       reading. Backmatter by Dr. Sherry Farrell-Racette (Michif),
       an associate professor of Native Studies and Women's and 
       Gender Studies at the University of Manitoba, provides 
       information on Michif culture and history and the 
       injustices of colonialism."--|cProvided by publisher.
