Really sad and disturbing to read about all of the racism and discrimination native canadians faced in the 60's, 70's and 80's. Hope that it is better today. Would be really good for an english class with lots of aboriginal students. The main character is sympathetic and engaging, and it is written in a very direct, simple manner. As long as you can stand some bad language and sexual and violent content, this book deals with some of the real issues our aboriginal people will still face today.
excellent book about growing up native in the 70's and 80's.
