Determined to take his future into his own hands, Junior leaves his troubled school on the rez to attend an all-white farm town high school where the only other Indian is the school mascot.Heartbreaking, funny, and beautifully written, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, based on the author's own experiences and coupled with poignant drawings by Ellen Forney that reflect the character's art, chronicles the contemporary adolescence of one Native American boy as he attempts to break away from the life he was destined to live.

The Banned Book Club. This event is hybrid!!

This isn't just any book club; it's a declaration, a statement, and a movement. Dive into tales that have shaken foundations, challenged norms, and often found themselves silenced or sidelined. Let’s come together to discover, discuss, and defend the books that were once forbidden. Join us in this exciting journey and let's champion the freedom to read!

Please also feel free to share your suggestions for the group at aW5mbyB8IHZodWNodXJjaCAhIG9yZw==
