Prairie Pictures
For twelve-year-old Sherri, moving is a way of life; seven places in as many years, three in the last year alone. But no place has ever been as strange as Gardin, Alberta, a town right out of the Old West.
Her father's new job—this time in an Alberta packing plant—holds promise, but like every job he's had as far back as Sherri can remember, it isn't long before the promise turns to powder and the cycle of disappointment and defeat sets in again.
