Wenjack is a historical fiction novella by Canadian author Joseph Boyden based on the story of Chanie "Charlie" Wenjack. Published by Hamish Hamilton (Penguin Books) in 2016 and featuring illustrations by Cree artist Kent Monkman, it was part of a collaborative effort to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Chanie's death. The book follows Chanie Wenjack, a 12-year-old Ojibwe boy, as he escapes from a Northern Ontario residential school in the futile hopes of returning home to his family and two dogs. It alternates between Chanie's perspective and the perspectives of Manitous, who take on different animal forms to keep a silent watch on Chanie as he walks on foot to a home he does not know is hundreds of kilometers away.
