Description When I Was Eight is a picture book adaptation of the early/middle grade chapter book Fatty Legs, telling the true story of Olemaun as she ventures into the dangerous territory of residential schools in northern Canada. The story has been made less frightening for younger readers with warmer illustrations. It still presents residential schools as a scary place, and serves as a quality introduction for children to a very mature subject. It also tells more about the value Olemaun had in learning to read and offers more encouragement in literacy. Suitable for Grade 2-5. Search by author’s name for more on this story.
