Inspired by true events, this story of strength, family, and
culture shares the awe-inspiring resilience of Elder Betty Ross.
Abandoned as a young child, Betsy is adopted into a loving family.
A few short years later, at the age of 8, everything changes. Betsy
is taken away to a residential school. There she is forced to
endure abuse and indignity, but Betsy recalls the words her father
spoke to her at Sugar Falls--words that give her the resilience,
strength, and determination to survive. Sugar Falls is based on the
true story of Betty Ross, Elder from Cross Lake First Nation. We
wish to acknowledge, with the utmost gratitude, Betty's generosity
in sharing her story. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of
Sugar Falls goes to support the bursary program for The Helen Betty
Osborne Memorial Foundation. This 10th-anniversary edition brings
David A. Robertson's national bestseller to life in full colour,
with a foreword by The Hon. Murray Sinclair, Chair of the Truth and
Reconciliation Commission of Canada, and a touching afterword from
Elder Betty Ross herself.
