He revisits some of the themes from his other books, but it works and I could see how it would be appealing to a teenage reader.

While this wasn't my favorite book in the world, I did like the plot and the comics scattered throughout. My favorite part was the drawings, they added a lot to the story. I would recommend this book as it is a quick and good read.

This book will make you laugh and cry. The protag's voice is clear and distinct and lulls you into his way of thinking.

This is a book everyone should read.

What a fantastic book!! It was read by the author, and he has a reservation indian accent that is a pleasure to listen to. This story has so much heart and hope - it made me laugh and it made me cry (more laughing than crying, don't worry!) and it brought so many issues that contemporary Native Americans grapple with to light.

Great great story of a young man's decision to change schools and the broadening implications of this into all areas of his life and culture.

I LOVED the descriptions of Grandmother Spirit - her tolerance and acceptance seem almost saintly. "What do I care if a man wants to marry another man? The only thing I want to know is who is going to pick up the dirty socks?" Awesome.

Absolutely, whole-heartedly recommended.
