Alexie, S., & Forney, E. (2007). The absolutely true diary of a part-time Indian. New York: Little, Brown.
Have you ever felt left out? Have you ever wondered how your life could be different with a few small changes? What person hasn't, right? This book is a partially true story about the hilarious author, Sherman Alexie.
The main character, Junior, is somewhat of an outcast. He was born with water on the brain (literally!), and this makes him seem a little different to everyone else. He begins to think that he is meant for better things in life, so he decides it is time for a BIG change.
If you're curious about what his does to change his life, or how he manages to overcome some serious bullying, this is the book for you!
This book is fantastic for any young adult who has ever felt like he didn't really belong; it's even great for someone who just wants a big laugh! Alexie's strong character, Junior, is guaranteed to take you on a truly miraculous journey.
