Native teen navigates identity in two worlds.
Imagine stepping into Junior's shoes, where humor and heartbreak intertwine as he straddles life between his reservation and a foreign-feeling, all-white high school. The illustration-enhanced narrative pulls you into an authentic coming-of-age journey, merging the distinctive perspective of a Native American with universal teenage trials. Sherman Alexie's own experiences add a layer of depth that promises to resonate long after you turn the final page.
