Set against the backdrop of the Great Plains, a thirteen-year-old Lakota girl named Red Dove grapples with the abandonment of her white father and the harsh realities of her family's struggle for survival. Faced with the difficult decision to either abandon her heritage for the white world or remain with her people as they face starvation, Red Dove embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Through her experiences, she learns that her true strength lies within, ultimately shaping her identity and future.

Red Dove, a fourteen-year-old girl of Lakota and white heritage, navigates the challenges of her identity and cultural heritage. Armed with her grandfather's medicine pouch, she has endured the harsh realities of an Indian boarding school and the aftermath of Wounded Knee. Her journey takes her to Europe, where she performs alongside Annie Oakley in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Now returning to America, she aspires to unite her two worlds and discover her true sense of belonging.

It's 1891 and fourteen-year-old Red Dove joins survivors of the tragedy of Wounded Knee to tour Europe with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show. In Red Dove, Listen to the Wind, her Lakota grandfather's medicine pouch taught her the value of empathy. Now, in book two of the trilogy, she must find the courage to face injustice--and speak her truth.
