The young girl spends her final four days experiencing quality time with her mother, father and grandmother. Each adult allows the child to experience the environment around her. The text attempts to convey the poetic nature of the environment but does not mention residential school except for an introductory page. The text and images make it seem that the child is merely going to a school as children do each autumn.
