The river glowed with lights for the first time. On a cold winter morning in 1952, Patsy Lamondin wakes to the day electricity will finally be connected to her small town along the Magnetawan River. Patsy and her siblings buzz with excitement, eagerly awaiting the ceremony being held at the center of town. The Lamondins have lived along the waters of Georgian Bay and the Magnetawan River for generations. They are a Métis family who love music, dancing and being outdoors, and Patsy ponders how electricity will change all of their daily lives. What she knows for sure is that, whatever changes, she will always feel she belongs here. Key Selling Points • Inspired by the true story of electricity coming to Britt, Ontario, in January 1952, years after much of North America had already been connected to the grid. • This story paints a picture of what small-town life was like for children seventy years ago when there were no phones, televisions or other electronic devices for entertainment. • Glowing illustrations by Sabrina Gendron depict the rural 1950s before electricity: oil lanterns, wood stoves, battery radios and hand pumps. • Author Pat Lamondin Skene learned of her family's Métis heritage after it was hidden in plain sight for generations. This story is a reclamation of her Indigenous identity and her family's history in Georgian Bay, including happy memories of jigging to fiddle music and gathering flowers on the big rock overlooking the Magnetawan River.
