Ten-year-old Charlie goes with his grandmother and aunties to clean out the house of his beloved Tante Sarah and Nook James, after their passing. What begins as a time of sadness and loss turns into a time of comfort when they begin reminiscing about all the wonderful memories they have of their beloved aunt and uncle. Then Charlie spies an old grub box and in it is Mooshoom. Charles's old buffalo coat. Maybe a family reunion where everyone shares their memories of the coat will help in this time of mourning ... As the stories are shared, Charlie feels a strong pride in his family while learning some important pieces of family history as well as the history of the Métis Nation.
