Thirteen-year-old Jak Loren is a typical boy with the usual
problems a family with older sisters and younger brothers presents.
Never mind the troubles at school - bullies and girls
When Jak goes to the ravine near his home in Brantford to get
away from Steven Burke, a bully who's been tormenting him, he
discovers the ravine has a history that's much older than he
thought. He meets Grandfather Rock, who shares with him the story
of the people who have lived near the ravine for thousands of
years. Soon Jak's eyes are opened to a new world of beings and
respect.
He learns about First Nations people and how their teachings
inhabit the spirits of all living things that surround us even
today. The tales of the First Nations help Jak to understand that
the gift of life is something to be cherished. And when a
construction crew arrives in his neighbourhood and threatens his
beloved ravine, Jak knows he has to act to save it.
