- Book 1 of the Red Dove Trilogy. Abandoned by her white father, thirteen-year-old Red Dove faces another lean winter with her Native family on the Great Plains, now empty of the buffalo that once sustained them. Spirited and proud, she is presented with a stark choice: leave her people to live in the white world, or stay and watch them starve. When she breaks a sacred tradition and eats the fruit of the Dead Man's Plum Bush, her wise old grandfather gives her a medicine pouch that allows her to enter the thoughts and feelings of others. With it, she confronts the cruelties of the nun who runs the boarding school, and the tragedy of Wounded Knee. Accompanied by her beloved pony, Red Dove begins a journey to find her place and discovers that her greatest power comes from within herself.
- Suitable for ages 9-14, and grounded in the history of the American West, Red Dove, Listen to the Wind is a Native American coming-of-age story that will appeal to adults as well as young people.
- Red Dove, Listen to the Wind, Volume One of the Red Dove Trilogy, is historical middle-grade fiction that speaks to the ever-present need for empathy.

About the Author
Award-winning author Sonia Antaki and her amazing dog Ziggy are excited about the 2021 launch of Red Dove, Tell Truth to Darkness, the second book in the Red Dove Trilogy.

Of Swiss, British and Syro-Lebanese ancestry, she was born in Egypt and came to the U.S. as a child. Red Dove, Listen to the Wind, the first book in the Red Dove Trilogy, is her first middle-grade novel, and has won multiple awards, including American BookFest Best Book of 2019 winner, Nautilus Book Silver Award, Moonbeam Children's Book Award.
