This middle grade novel that I discovered is one that I’m glad I found. I learned so much about Native American tribes particularly in the Pacific Northwest. Maisey reacts to being injured and unable to dance anymore. Christine Day highlights the reactions a typical middle schooler would feel when her friends are accomplishing these activities and she feels left behind. This isn’t a 100% perfect novel but it was does highlight a lot of history and how to deal with situations that doesn’t  always go your way.
