Summary: “Son, You’re going to find more and more hope the farther and farther you walk away from sad, sad reservation.” So Junior, a budding cartoonist, who is already beaten up regularly for being a skinny kid with glasses, decides to go to the rich all-white high school miles away. He’ll be a target there as well, but maybe he’ll also get a chance to prove everyone wrong. This is the incredible story of a Native American boy’s attempt to break away from the life he thought he was destined to live.
