Synopsis

When six-year-old Anna and her family stepped off the boat from Finland onto the Canadian shore, the English language spoken around her seemed to have no words, just gutteral sounds, and seemed impossible to learn. Schooling demanded that she learn English. This posed just one of many difficulties faced by Anna and her family as they struggled to survive in the harsh Canadian wilderness.
