In 1964, two brothers are taken from the warm and loving care of their grandparents, and spirited away to a residential school, miles from home. James, assigned to manual work on the grounds, sees less and less of his younger brother, Thomas. James soon discovers the anguish that Thomas is living under, which leads to unspeakable tragedy. The pain and guilt that dogs James continues to affect his troubled son, Edwin (introduced in book 1). But a new understanding is dawning between them…

By Author David Alexander Robertson and Illustrator Scott B. Henderson
For Grades 9–12

Scars introduces White Cloud, a young Plains Cree boy, in the year 1870, when the last great smallpox epidemic swept through the prairies. After witnessing, one by one, the death of his entire family from the illness, he summons the strength to journey on to find a new home and deliver himself from the terrible disease. But will he make it? Scars follows White Cloud and the people he encounters, as he struggles to survive against impossible odds.

The book also reconnects readers to Edwin, a lost young man on his own quest who was introduced in book 1, Stone. By learning about the bravery and perseverance of his ancestor White Cloud, Edwin summons his own courage and travels to confront the main source of his despair: the father he barely knows.

Scars is the second book in the graphic novel series, 7 Generations. Books in the series:

Book 1: Stone (published) introduces Edwin, a young man who must discover his family’s past if he is to have any future.

Book 3: Ends/Begins (forthcoming) features the story of Edwin’s father and his residential-school experience.

Book 4: The Pact (forthcoming) a story of redemption, as father and his son reconcile their past and begin a new journey.
