A road trip and a vision quest: this graphic novel blends the classic coming-of-age road trip adventure with a vision quest for the protagonist, Damon Quinn, who is reconnecting with his Cree heritage. The story begins with Damon, his mother, and his friend/love interest Journey driving from British Columbia to Alberta. Damon's journey continues even after they arrive at Kehewin Cree Nation as he stumbles into a vision quest that takes him through time to visit with his ancestors. This is the second volume in the Dreams series. Indigenous coming-of-age: similar to other HighWater Press titles, such as the Surviving the City series, but this has a spiritual twist as Damon has been marked as a future leader of his people. He experiences waking dreams and vision quests into the past. Wanda John-Kehewin is the award-winning author of Hopeless in Hope, which won the Sheila A. Egoff Children's Literature Prize.
