Author Notes:Ginger Reno is a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, and her desire to learn about Cherokee history and culture naturally spilled over into her writing. She is the author of Find Her , an Edgar Award nominated middle-grade novel, and Spirit Shadow , a picture book. Ginger lives in Oklahoma within the Cherokee Nation and likes to spend as much time as possible on her lakefront porch with her two favorite people--her husband and their twelve-year-old German shepherd.

It is the word by which he lives.
