In Search of April Raintree by Beatrice Mosionier is an absolutely heartbreaking and powerful story about the life of M tis woman April Raintree Although the story is a work of Fiction it is loosely based on the life of author Beatrice Mosionier and many other indigenous children whom were forcibly removed from their family homes My heart ached for all that April endured and suffered At the age of 5 neglect shaming and immense sadness My heart ached for them both I had to take many breaks while reading this book I needed to process all I d read It appalls me how some humans can mistreat and abuse others Especially children In Search of April Raintree was such a profound story It really touched me and opened my eyes even wider to the abuses and indignation many Indigenous people have suffered Beatrice Mosionier
