By Sherman Alexie. I can't believe that I am JUST NOW reading this book. I have heard of it in several different ways, but now, it is even more important that I read it because he is coming to Liberty Lake Municipal Library. We are featuring him for our ONE BOOK this year...and I will get to meet him. One of my co-workers actually went to school with him! So...that will be exciting! Sherman Alexie grew up on an Indian Reservation here in the state of Washington! The book is a fictional tale...but I guess based a little in truth as well. How does an American Indian fit in with an all white town? How does this effect his life on the reservation? How does it effect the way he grows up as a stranger in a strange land? I thought this was a good book, humorous, sad, interesting all words I would use to describe the book! This book is a Young Adult read...but is appropriate for adults as well! I recommend it! I need to read some of his other books as well!
