Belle of Batoche

LB2145

$10.99

Belle, an 11-year-old Metis girl, and Sarah both want the coveted job of church bell ringer.

An embroidery contest is held to award the position, and Sarah cheats. Before Belle can expose her, the two are caught up in the advancing forces of General Middleton and his troops as they surround Batoche in the 1885 Riel Rebellion. The church bell disappeared that day and remains missing to this day.
