My most powerful mirror moment is when Junior has to go a school that is majority a different race from him. A window moment for me is when Rowdy punched Junior a close friend like that has never become my worst enemy (Alexie 53)

My biggest mirror moment was when Arnold went to a new school and did not know anyone there

My biggest window moment was knowing that Arnold lives in poverty, on an Indian Reservation, and not being able to pay for a meal. (Alexie 124)

A major mirror moment was when Junior moved to the Reardan school and didn't know anybody. Page 83. I felt the same way when I moved to a new school. It was lonely for a while but i made friends in time and the new school was great.

A meaningful window moment was leaning about how much loss are in some peoples lives and how much this effects them in a lot of different ways . Page 215. I new people lost people but this book really opened my eyes on how many lose close family members or friends and how this effects them.

Mirror: On page 225 Rowdy and Junior climb the huge tree in front of the lake. This is a mirror for me because me and my friends used to climb trees and explore back in elementary school. This chapter brought back a lot of nostalgia for me.

Window: I didn’t realize how big of a problem alcohol was on the reservation and how it negatively it effects their life’s. I also didn’t realize how poor most of the Indians are and how they are stuck in a cycle of no hope and giving up. P, 201

The part that I think really mirrors my life was when junior's sister decided to leave (page 89) because it reminded me of when my sister went off to college. My window moment in this book has to be the society of the reservation (page 7)
Because I have never had to deal with that kind of economical situation.

The moment in the book that was a mirror for me was when juniors sister got up and moved out to Montana(Alexie pg.89).Because it reminded me of when my sister moved out on her own to Colorado and didn't see her for a while.A window moment for me was when his dog died in the beginning of the book and their was nothing he could really do because his family had no money to spare to help his best friend Oscar.

A mirror moment for me in when junior is getting picked on by other students who are more socially adapt and more physically intimidating than he is, I relate to this because I got picked on in middle school for being socially awkward (Page 64). A Window moment for me is the whole concept of an Indian reservation because I don’t think I’ve even met someone from or around a reservation. Another shock to me is how the reservation is full of poor outcasted people almost like segregation (Page 13).

The greatest mirror window for me was the fact that Rowdy was upset with Junior when Junior decided to go to Reardan (Pink 52-53). When I was in elementary school I had two friends who stoped talking to each other because one was going to move away that summer and the one who wasn't moving was mad. My biggest window moment was getting to see how bad conditions on these reservations can be, I always thought that reservations were not bad at all but this book made me think a lot differently about Indian reservations (Pink 173).

Window: on pages 157-160 Junior looses his grandma and when this happened it really opened up my eyes on how one person can have such a big impact on someone or many people and when you loose that person it kind of feels like you have lost part of yourself and that's what happened to Junior

Mirror: on page 24 junior talks about how much rowdy means to him and I can relate to this because my best friend means so much to me and with them my life wouldn't be the same and they stick up for me just like rowdy does with junior.

# data[].attributes.body
Mirror: I see myself in junior when he is nervous at a new school because when I always switched schools as a young kid I was always nervous too. (Pg 55)
Window: I don’t see myself in junior when his grandma dies because both sets of my grandparents parents are alive and I haven’t lost and close family either(pg 157)

Mirror: On page 45, Junior decided that he wanted to transfer schools, as in go to Reardan, which reminded me as when Olathe west was open, and the boundaries changed. I knew that i always wanted to go to ONW, but now, i was changed to going to ON, thats when i filled my transfer to go to ONW, somewhere where all my friends that i grew up with werent going, just like was Junior did. He and i Branched off from the directed route we were put on to go away from .

Window: On Page 13, when Junior lost his dog, i think that gave him kind of a step to do everything else he did in the book, like he got courage from that, or more like he got courage to make his dog proud. I couldn't fathom losing my dog, especially having him euthanized. He is my rock and he helps me get through each day and i feel sympathy for junior that he lost his dog so early in his junior to become different.

# data[].attributes.body
Window: One problem Junior had to deal with that I haven't experienced is family or friends dealing with alcoholism. This book gave me a good perspective of how destructive alcohol can be. (Pg 180)
Mirror: My biggest mirror moment from my book was how Junior had to move schools. I've had to move to new schools multiple times and know how it feels to not know anybody and to be the new kid. (Pg 56)

# data[].attributes.body
Mirror moment: My mirror moment would be when Junior transferred to a different school, and was really shy because he didn't know anyone(Page 55) I connected to this because I transferred to Northwest, and only knew at most 3 people her, so getting to know people was hard.
Window moment: My window moment was seeing the amount of death junior experiences. I've only been to one funeral and it was for a distant friend, Juniors been to 42 (Page 199)

Mirror: meeting a bunch of new people freshman year at a new school

The biggest mirror moment for me was on page 185. In this section of the book Rowdy and Junior are having a basket ball game where they show there rivalries, and Junior feels he must defeat Rowdy. This is a mirror moment for me because I have had rivalries and awkward relationships between friends like Junior, and I felt like I understood what he was going through.

The biggest window moment for me was on 216. In this part Junior explains all the deaths he has experienced in the past year. This is a major window moment for me because , I didn't know life could be so cruel like that and I could never understand how it would feel to lose that much people.
