Eleven-year-old Lee is furious about her dad's problem and her mom's actions. She wants changes.  When she and her cousin Alex explore Vancouver Island's forest on a family camping trip, Lee is knocked unconscious.  She awakens in an unfamiliar world.  Old landmarks have been replaced by a strange trailer, an odd woman, a monkey and a pack of dogs.  The woman professes to be Emily Carr.  The cousins meet a family of squatters from the Depression-set prairies who are logging illegally.  When Alex indicates that he has had enough, Lee wonders how to get back to the campsite.   Where is home?
