When 16-year-old Amy Brooks travels to Glacier Park, Montana, to learn about her Blackfeet heritage, she meets a grandmother who has been missing her for ten years and an uncle who wishes she’d never come back. She has wonderful daytime adventures on a paint horse named Twinkle and terrifying nighttime dreams that leave her shaken and crying. She meets Native Americans who play golf and others who cling tenaciously to the old ways. Like Montana, a land of many contrasts, Amy’s life becomes a mixture of great joy and deep sadness. Join Amy and her cousins, Paul and Shirley, as they ride free in flower-decked meadows, and follow them to parades and powwows. Find out if this Southern California teenager can adapt to her new life in the north. Will she unlock the mystery of her mother’s tragic death? Discover the answers in Summer of the Painted Horse by award-winning author, Nancy Sanderson.
