They Called Me Number One: Secrets and Survival at an Indian Residential School by Bev Sellars

3.0

This book was interesting at times but often felt it dragged and moved at a slow pace. It is important stories and details that need to be shared and the residential schools were absolutely awful and unacceptable, I however just found this book often left me bored and skimming. I am glad the author was able to begin to stopnthe cycle for her own kids and share foe others to learn from. It'd an interesting read in that it provides some skimming and sugar coated descriptions of life in a residential school. It didn't fill in many more details than I previously already knew about the schools. I recommend reading it though as everyone should know about the terrible things that happened in residential schools
