| Summary | "Ti-Ti-Pu: A Boy of Red River" by J. Macdonald Oxley is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the journey of a Scottish family, the Macraes, who leave their homeland to settle in North America. The protagonist, Hector Macrae, embarks on various adventures with his younger sister Ailie and their loyal dogs, Dour and Dandy, as they navigate the challenges and dangers of their new frontier life. The opening of the novel introduces readers to the Macrae family as they make their transatlantic journey to join Lord Selkirk's new colony in the Red River area. Through rich descriptions, we come to understand the close-knit family dynamic and the character traits of each member, particularly Hector, who is depicted as brave and adventurous. The narrative unfolds as they encounter rough conditions on the ship and even face hostility upon their arrival at York Factory. The chapter concludes with a tense moment when Hector attempts to defend his dogs from a bear, setting the stage for a story full of courage, companionship, and the trials of pioneer life.
