Book
The scarf and the butterfly : a graphic memoir of hope and healing / written by Monica Ittusardjuat ; illustrated by Coco Apunnguaq Lynge and Scott Plumbe.
Summary:
Monica Ittusardjuat brings readers with her from residential school classrooms to government apologies on her journey to rediscovering what it means to be Inuk. Born prematurely in an iglu on Baffin Island, Monica attended three residential schools over 11 years. She details her resulting struggles with addiction, mental health, and domestic violence, which haunted her into adulthood. Equal parts heartbreaking and hopeful, Monica's memoir is a testimony to the lasting impacts of residential schools and one woman's fight to reclaim what she lost.
