Eleven-year-old Sarah Levy was a city girl, a Brooklyn girl. The modern wonders of the 1920s were all around her there, and she could not imagine a better place to live. But her life was changed by a telegram that took her family across the country to a starkly different land and lifestyle in South Dakota. Suddenly Sarah finds herself coming of age in a landscape that could not be more foreign to her. On her grandparents' farm, the land they loved, Sarah finds a friend, a Sioux Indian girl named Wicincala. Through the mystical adventures they share, Sarah learns lessons in life, love, loyalty, and forgiveness, that are larger than time itself.
