@Deblovestoread Your #LitSolace card was waiting for me to open it while watching the leaves blow all around my yard. I adore pine cones and that sticker is adorable.

When Uwohali's father Sequoyah returns after many years the community is full of talk about the strange marks he is making- surely witchcraft! But Uwohali learns that his father has invented a way to capture the Tsalagi language. Will his father be able to convince the village before he is thrown out, or worse?
I loved this historical fiction account of Sequoyah and his invention of written Cherokee Syllabary.
