The Wind and The Drum
by Katharine Johnson
In the Arctic Lands of The Midnight Sun, the Winters are long and harsh. It is the 1670s. The saami migrate with the reindeer they depend on for food, clothing, and shelter like the American Plains Indains relied on the buffalo.
Tuuli was marked from birth to be the next Noaidi of her people. She will be wind listener and keeper of their most sacred drum. But the wind whisters to Tuuli that strangers are coming--strangers who threaten the reindeer and demand the Saami give up their drums and setting off on a series of perilous journeys to save her people, their way of life , and, ultimately, herself.
