Description

Li’l Shadd’s father is a busy pioneer doctor. When Dr. Shadd is called away to see a patient on Li’l Shadd’s birthday, the young boy struggles to understand why helping people is more important than his birthday party. There’s only one way to find out: join his father on the long horse-and-wagon journey to help Nīkānisiw’s family!
