"This is the story of an Ojibway boy who, on hearing the call of a Loon, remembers a story long ago. Mishomis (meaning grandfather in Ojibway) comes to a peaceful restful lake surrounded by tall, ancient trees. The place is tranquil because it is sacred, and the Loon is calling because it is time for the Mishomis to pass on. In a moment of silence, Moon Lake Loon Lake welcomes Mishomis's spirit, and again the boy hears the call of the Loon." - Back cover.
