The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian

Arnold Spirit Junior is a witty budding cartoonist growing up on the Spokane Indian Reservation, mocked for being awkward, stuttering, and wearing crooked glasses. When he decides to attend a mostly white high school far from home, he risks losing friends and facing new prejudice. With humor, heart, and sharp cartoons, Junior discovers unexpected inner strength as he navigates two worlds. Winner of the National Book Award, this funny, honest coming-of-age story breaks stereotypes about Native American life, blending heartbreak and laughter in an unforgettable voice for young readers.
