Why Are You Still Here? continues the story of Lillian & Kokomis, the award-winning book about a complex and not-always-lovable foster kid. In Why Are You Still Here? Lillian furthers her sense of belonging through her connection with a surprising spirit that returns her to traditional ways, legends, and Indigenous ways of knowledge. She and her buddies also uncover the mystery of ghosts and spirits that live behind a window at the family farm.
