Junior is funny. In page 23 it shows a drawing he made of his best friend and he used a word bubble showing that Rowdy was aggravated that he drew him. Hes also brave because he went to a school with a large amount of white people and was able to stand up to one of the kids bullying him.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior to be brave. His act on moving to a different school out of the Rez despite what the natives would have thought of him and what they would’ve done to Junior was enough to show his bravery. As I quote from page 55, “You can’t just betray your tribe and then change your mind ten minutes later. I was on a one-way bridge. There was no way to turn around l, even if I wanted to.” This quote describes how he fully decided on moving to school that was far away from the Rez, and being the only Indian in the school at its time.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a very interesting person. He is filled with many different Feelings and emotions. I know this because on page 103 it says this. “That would have hurt my feelings more than anything” Junior had drew a picture for rowdy, and in this sentence he was explaining how if rowdy would have ripped it up, then that would have really made junior sad. This is one of the reasons that I say that junior is filled with feeling and emotions.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is brave. On page 55  his father told him “You’re so brave, you’re a warrior”  he was brave because he chose to stop going to school at the Rez and everyone Hated him for it. He chose to go to a public school and he was the only Indian.  He was also brave bc he stood his ground in the new school and he punched someone.

I will describe junior as a sad kid that has grown up in a poor way but getting Though it the best he can. On page 13  he said “ it sucks to poor”  but he dose defined himself manytimes

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a strong individual, as in even when he was faced with all of those medical issues , and being in poverty he still attempts to become more then just a poor Indian on the Rez, which is why he went to reardan even though he doubted he should be there , as shown on page 56 “ it was the opposite of my family . It was the opposite of me , I didn’t deserve to be there . “

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is different from everyone else. Jr. is also Indian and he loves to draw. Drawing is a way for jr. to show who he is and how he can talk to people. “But when you draw a picture, everybody can understand it.”  Jr. always felt left out and was bullied for who he was. But then he went to a different school he was happy but it made things worse evasive his old school everyone thought that he betrayed his school for leaving. “The Indians around here are going to be angry”.  But in the other school he is the only Indian in the school with other white people and he still gets made fun of but it’s not physically.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a brave and strong boy because even though he lives with many physical disabilities , he still pulls through and lives everyday striving to do better for himself. He is torn between two parts of his life and manages to substain both of them through all difficulties he experiences on a day to day bases. He struggles with everyday life and still lives to help himself after he's lost everybody on the rez except his family.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a caring person who wants to show that his disability don’t really change who he is. But gets bullied all of the time just because he is different. Even though he often used to have his best friend to defend him. “Rowdy loves to get revenge on others “Rowdy snuck in shaved off their eyebrows and cut off their braids”

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a very caring and capable person who displays brave yet doubtful thoughts. Junior from the start of this story has been treated nothing more than like a footnote by everyone around. After moving to Rearden, Junior has slowly seen improvements, though he still finds himself in dangerous and confusing situations such as the bullies at his school or his teacher mocking him. He still strives through it.

# data[].attributes.body
❝The biggest 🤬 in the world.❞ That's what Junior described himself as. He has low selfestem and is very doubtful about himself until Mr. P talked to him and said he is able to do more for himself. ❝All the kids have given up.  All yoir friends. All the bullies. And their mothers and fathers have given up, too. And their grandparents gave up and their grandparents before them. And me and every other teacher here. We're ak defeated.❞ This led Junior to leave the reservation.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe junior as a doubtful person. On page 13 he says.” It sucks to be poor and it sucks to feel that you some joe deserve to be poor”. He always doubts his self in all situations.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as  smart but he also doubts his abilities and thinks he’s worse than everybody else. He says this in this quote “I don’t think I’m better than anybody. I think I’m worse than everybody else!” (Alexie,p.52) This quote shows that junior believes he is not as good as other people because of his disabilities. What junior doesn’t know is that there are people who really believe in him.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a unique kid. Junior is unique due to all of his disabilities, he looks different from all other kids too. Junior is very brave , he deals with tough things like his families poverty , getting bullied , his best friend not wanting to be his friend anymore , going to a new school and etc. He suffers a lot and gets through it all. Junior is doubtful because he never believes in himself , he thinks he’s worthless for many reasons and doesn’t believe that he has any potential. Junior is also very caring and cares about everyone around him. So in all Junior is a unique , brave , doubtful and caring individual.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel as though junior is hopeless but nice person, he doesn’t believe in him self and he doubts himself as if he is not a person, he doesn’t like the way he is and he disowns the name he was given just like in the class when Penelope  asked his name “what’s your name? Penelope asked. “Junior,” I said.” But when the teacher called his name he said Arnold and Penelope  got mad because he lied.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe junior as a very caring courageous and hurt person “I was so depressed I thought about dropping out of reardan”, this quote shows that he was very hurt by 3 people who he really cared about dieing and him believing that it was all his fault his family was cursed because he was a traitor that left the REZ

# data[].attributes.body
i would describe Junior as a brave but doubtful kid. He is brave because he wasn’t scared to go to Reardan, and even if he was scared to punch Roger, he still did to defend himself. I say he is also doubtful because on page 13 he says, “ it sucks to be poor, and it sucks to feel that somehow you deserve to be poor. You start believing that you’re poor because you’re stupid and ugly because your indian.”

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as an upset but loving individual,He is loving because he cared for his dog the best he could and he cares about his best friend Rowdy.He is upset because he thinks he’s just a poor Indian thts never going to amount to anything but that.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is very smart and caring . In the book it says on page 84 “I was smarter than 99% of the others”this shows he is very smart and confident with himself.

# data[].attributes.body
The way I would describe junior by his change in heart about the Rez. Yes Mr P changed his mind but he could have been hard headed and stayed but he changed. It’s hard for someone to change. “Who has the most hope? White people my parents said at the same time.... I want to go reardan. He knew that he wouldn’t be welcomed back to the red because of this change and he still made that decision. As a kid his age I don’t think I would have made a decision that would be such a big change in my life but he did because he wanted to put himself first to set himself up to have a good life.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is determined. Junior had a small chance of surviving at birth but he did and ever since then he beat the odds and prove people wrong. For example in the texts it was stated “I was born with too much cerebral spinal fluid inside my skull”. With him being born with that and still be able to be one of the smartest kids in the rez means he proved people wrong and he beaten the odds of still being alive.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a very misunderstood and a high potential person, he’s very under-looked within the Rez and school as people down him for the person he is. Junior deals with a lot of physical problems which gets him bullied, yet his best friend Rowdy still sticks up for him as they’ve been friends since kids. As rowdy says himself “You’re the only person I listen to” (PG. 20) as Rowdy genuinely cares about Junior and they share such a strong bond within each other. Rowdy stands up for Junior on the often due to the bullying and teasing that Junior goes through do to his differences that he has, Junior now shows change because of a talk with Mr.P where Mr.P encourages him to do better saying that he deserves better than what he has now.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as an intelligent kid who takes a lot of risks and is very unique. Junior is really determined for a better life. On page 55 it says " just remember this, my father said. those white people aren't better than you" that kinda shows some of the struggle between Indians and white people. Junior went to a new white school and it was really risky especially because so many of them were racist he knew he'd get picked on but he wanted a better education, a way off the Rez.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a shy Guy, that is very fragile, and weak, but time to to time throws his temper tantrums. “You meet me after school right here”. Junior is not the type of guy to fight around but roger brought him to the point where junior wanted to have a fight with him. Which shows me that junior is a shy guy that throws his temper tantrums time to time.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe him as a very brave and smart boy but also has a soft side he tries to hide his emotions

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a unique kid that not as fast as the other kids and looks a little different for ex- he was a size 11 in 3rd grade

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as outgoing because he takes to Gordy without being afraid. He became friends with him by walking up to him and say he needed to talk to him. The text states “So I went to school the next day and walked right up to Gordy the Genius White Boy”.Page 91.This quote is saying that he wasn’t afraid to walk up to Gordy and have a conversation with him.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior can be characterized as braved and strong. “Poverty =empty refrigerators + empty stomach “( page 8 ) This shows that he is poor and he sometimes goes to sleep Hungry. Junior knows his life isn’t the best. Junior does try to make a difference by the choices he is making .

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a smart kid because on page 40
mr .P said he’s a bright and shinning star meaning he stands out from other students in a academic way. Junior is also a well put together person because even though he lives in poverty he still manages to live his life and not let that get in his way.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe junior as a smart and confident but insecure laid back outcasted kid that is sad due to a sad life.I say that because he follows what he wants and once he cares about you he won’t let you go nor let you down.He stays out of trouble and is a great student in class from what we heard in the book.He is also a great friend and a great person since he tried to get his best friend who was going down the wrong path the same chance he is getting while going to the new school.
One quote Junior said was “No,no,I don’t think I’m better than anybody.I think I’m worse than everybody else.”.I used that quote because it shows insecure Junior is and how low his self esteem is but how he will make fun of and bring himself down in order to make his best friend feel better even though his best friend is being a jerk to him.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe junior as confusing, dedicated, and intelligent. He wants to end the cycle of poverty of his family but he knew that in order to do that he would have to leave the Rez because nobody on the Rez is willing to continue their dreams end try to better themselves and family. But he also has to go with changes at Reardan because there’s nobody that shares the same beliefs and culture as him. (Mr.P, p42) “All the kids have given up” “All your friends all the bullies and their mothers and fathers have given up too. And their grandparents gave up and their grandparents before them”. This quote is what motivated Junior to end the cycle of poverty and giving up on their dreams.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a smart kid. He is determined to get smarter and not be like his family. He changed schools in order to get a better education and is trying to better his life and future. Mr.P told him that kids on the reservation don't have no motivation and give up. He wants Junior to have a good future and not give up like his friend Rowdy.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a very expressive person it’s not hard for him to show his emotions and feelings. Also he is very funny and opened minded and he’s a very strong person. We can fiesta start our when on page 26 he isn’t scared to admit that he master baits he claims “I’m proud of it” . I also said he’s funny because he is always joking and lastly I said that he was strong person as he has gone through a lot of tuff situations where he has tried to stood his grown and kept movin forward

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a smart and bold kid but is also very emotional. Many people think he has a lot of potential. He is also strong because he doesn’t let the bullying get to him and he was only supposed to love up to six months “I was only six months and i was supposed to croak during the surgery”. He fights for what he wants and is a good friend.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a smart, determined and sometime misheard person. When he decided to transfer, everyone on the Rez got mad at him. Little do they know, he wanted to have a better future than them. He didn’t want to be like everyone on the Rez. He wanted to pursue his career so he took manners into his hands and made the decision to transfer to a different school. When Rowdy heard the news, he got really mad and punched. Rowdy should have been a supportive friend and thought that Junior didn’t want to be with him anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
I would characterize Junior as a brave and determined person. On page 89 Junior drew comics about how he had to walk to school (a school where he was constantly made fun of for being Indian) if his parents didn’t have enough gas. Junior was also brave enough to punch Roger in the face for messing with him (Alexie, P:65). This tells me that Junior is able to defend himself when he needs to and he is willing to better himself by getting off the rez, even if the kids at his new school are mean to him too.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is very smart and driven. He wants to do more with his life and wants a better one. I would say he is a bit of a risk taker. But he is also sad. His family is sad and he doesnt wanna end up like them.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior by saying that he is brave and Honest . He always keeps his head up and try’s everything that has an opportunity. Example is on page 5

Junior also asked his parents to switch schools to be a better person and to have hope for a new opportunity. even though people pushed him around, he made sure his head was high and ready for the next adventure.

# data[].attributes.body
I’d say junior is a smart kid,and he has sort of a bold side that people would not expect.For example when junior was being bullied by the jocks in his new school, he stood up to one of them and punched him in the face, and the punch knocked him on the floor.”Yea bit you punched the alpha dog in the face “:” They’re going to respect you now “
He was bold enough to stand to the alpha dog of the school.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a person that doesn’t give up he is taking the bullying. In the school other kids call him a name “Globe” because his head is big. Bullies would pick him up spine him around and then place there finger where they wanna go and say “ I want to go there”.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is an emotional but outgoing person. Throughout the story so far we learn more than enough about him. He can even be defined as brave for when he punched one of the Reardan kids after he had grown tired of their constant mockery of him. Also going to the school in general, he had put what other people on the rez. would think of him behind, the punishment he would receive for "betraying" them and leaving.  He's artistic , putting almost everything into pictures , his mind is creative being able to do that, being able to almost instantly put his emotions down onto paper like nothing. He's determined, after the talk with Mr.P had changed him, he NEEDED to get off the rez. to accomplish most of anything he wanted. He's trying to make it in the big world and he's not giving up.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a very hopeful and preserving person. I characterize him this way because he has had many chances to just give up and be done like the rest of the people surrounding him have already done but he hasn’t. He keeps pushing to do better and be better especially after his talk with Mr.P. Even when his dad asked him if he just wanted to go back the the Rez school he told him “no, I have to do this” showing that he wouldn’t give up on Being better in life.

# data[].attributes.body
I would really Describe junior as a brave, smart kid because you see that on page 42 when he got into the fight with the boy at the all white school he wasn’t scared at all. At the same time Junior is trying to go far in life for himself  and I think for him going to a good school outside of the Rez was the best idea possible. Also it’s good because he will literally be the only Indian to leave the Rez with a good education. Outside of that he’s not getting bullied anymore

# data[].attributes.body
Junior Is a Determined  person. I say that because he dedicated himself to have a better life then what he’s bin living. He decides to transfer school to make sure of it although the school is exact opposite to what’s he’s used to  he still go regardless even when he didn’t have a ride so he walked until he was picked up from his dad friend to attend this school. Another trait I’ll say he have is being Strong. He’s deals with a lot on a day to day basis, He gets bullied a lot more then often and he also has health issues and speech impediment. On top of that he deals with poverty and that’s what makes him so determined.

# data[].attributes.body
junior is a brave kid that doesn’t want to stay on the rez. He has hope to find something new in his life. On page 45 it says “I want to go to Reardan, Reardan is the rich white farm town.” Also on page 47 juniors mother says “you’ll be the first one to ever leave the Rez this way.” He knew the other Indians were going to hate him for going but he went anyways to fine hope.

# data[].attributes.body
How do I describe Junior he was a very different and Determined person. Junior was looked at different and always was picked on but he continued to push through and still be himself. He like to draw because he said it “ it helps him escape changes” something that keeps him going through out the hard times.

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is in between a flat and round character. He’s flat because all he even does is doubt himself and talk about how bad everything is. He’s also a round character because he’s brave enough to leave the rez and was brave enough to punch a guy in the face. In the beginning he talks about how his life isn’t the best by saying “Poverty = empty refrigerator + empty stomach” (Pg. 8) then talks about how he likes KFC. Later after he punched Rodger, he talked to his grandmother who said “I think it means he respects you” after Junior told her what happened at school. He didn’t believe it at first until he stared him going to school again and noticed Rodger was acting different

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a very hard working, curious, and misunderstood person. He is brave for switching out of the rez. He deals with a lot of bullying and going somewhere else to settle down is very brave considering what he goes through. He would constantly get bullied on the rez and he doesn’t know what to expect from the new white school though he has already had some bad experience there.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel as though junior try’s his best to feel comfortable with himself and the world around him. “ I draw all the time” “ I draw because words are too unpredictable, words are too limited” “ when you draw a picture, everybody can understand it.” It shows that through his eyes him drawing is what makes me feel the most him and most confident and comfortable and most connected with the world around him.    Alexie, page 5

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is a really brave person and will do a lot for what he wants.

# data[].attributes.body
I would characterize Junior a a Unique person with low self-esteem. On page 13,  he states “It sucks to be poor, and it sucks to feel that you deserve to be poor. You start believing that you’re poor because you’re stupid and ugly. And then you start believing that you’re stupid and ugly because you’re Indian, and because you’re Indian you start believing you’re destined to be poor, it’s an ugly circle and there’s nothing you can do about it”

I would characterize Junior as brave and determined. I characterized Junior as brave and determined because he took a chance and went to Reardan to have a good opportunity at a good education.

This quotes shows how brave he is because he is going to a new school and a whole new environment then he’s used to.

- I would describe Junior as very emotional  and direct on what he think about people . “ she said he wasn’t afraid to gamble everything, and that’s the kind of man she wanted to spend her life with. I couldn’t believe it . My sister married a guy for a damn silly reason” Page 90 .  Junior expressed that because his sister is moving to Montana and he doesn’t want her to move away from the family, its a major change for him and he acted out on it by fussing and thinking she wrong . That shows me that junior very emotional on the way he feels .

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is brave because of how he acted towards the bullies at his new school. After Roger an his friends said something rude to junior he says, “I hated them. And i knew i had to do something big... So i punched Roger in the face”(Forney 65). When Junior punched Roger in the face they realized who Junior is an that is what made them respect Junior more an not bully him anymore.

Junior is creative in the book he says “I draw because words are too unpredictable.” “I draw because words are to limited.” Those quotes show how creative he is.

Junior is very determined and also self-Conscious. I say this because on page 45 Junior says “I want to transfer school”. Junior lets his parents know that he really wanted to go to a new school. This shows that he is determined to have a better life. Junior is self-conscious because on page 56 he says “So what am I doing in a racist Reardan, where more than half of every graduating class went to collage?” This shows me that he really doesn’t fully believe in him self.

# data[].attributes.body
I would describe Junior as a hopeful person because no matter what anyone says or does he still has hope and even in his dreams. On page 43 Mr.P said “You’ve been fighting since you were born... you have to take you and your hope and go somewhere where other people have hope.” So that means even Mr.P knows that he has hope and a hopeful person.

Junior is a really good kid that tried his hardest to achieve the things he wants when he wants it. On page 109 junior talks about ponelope’s father and says “If you make charcoal babies, I’m going to disown her. I’m going to kick her out of my house.” This shows the racism that’s being thrown at him in his new life. Through it all he still pushes through and that makes him a bright person.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that Junior is determined to persevere. I say this because of all the obstacles he had gotten through in his life. No matter what struggles came Junior's way he never gave up on life or his dreams. (Pages 52-53) "Bang! Rowdy punched me... But I had to stand eventually, and when I did, I knew that that my best friend had become my worst enemy." Even when his one and only friend (at the time) knocked him down he got back up.

“No, if I don’t go now ,I never will.I have to do it now”

He is one of the smartest kids in the school, and is often shown to have very weird thoughts in the situations he’s put through.

I say that junior is a nice kid that likes to dream big of himself. Junior is someone that people bully because of the way he looks. His parents let him go to a new school because they think he will get better options to what he wanna do. In his new school he don’t get picked on as much.

Junior can be described as bright and expressive.
He is very smart and one point in the Rez he was the smartest kid in his class. He loves to use his art to understand the world and to express his outlook on the world around him and the people he encounters as well as his feelings. Drawing is also his way of communicating to the world. In the book he says himself “I draw because I want to talk to the world”

# data[].attributes.body
Junior is confused, determined, and Creative
He is confused of his identity. He says “I feel like two different people inside of one body”, this shows how life on the Rez is different from his life at the school, he is determined in the fact that he was willing to move schools to better his education so he could do something with his life, Junior is creative because he uses pictures to describe his life instead of words he says “I draw because words are too unpredictable”.

The best way to describe Junior would be undeveloped. He’s still very much a teenage boy and acts like any other teenage boy. He’s still developing as a human and it shows in his actions.

You can characterize junior as a very expressive person. He wants to use his cartoons, his art, and humor to speak to the world and people like him. He longs for attention from the world. Junior reveals this in a cartoon as well as a quote in the book. The author states on page 6, “so I draw because I want to talk to the world. And I want the world to pay attention to me. I feel Important with a pen in my hand”.  He also states on page 6, “so I draw because I feel like it might be my only chance to escape the reservation”. Through the segregation of his people and how he was deemed as less than by his peers do to his brain condition, he looks to drawing to convey his experience and himself to the world and to escape that environment.

Junior is very brave and bright. On page 40, Mr. P told Junior “And you’re a bright and shining star too.. I don’t want you to fail.” This explains how Junior is bright and stands out from everyone else. On page 72, Eugene told Junior “It’s pretty cool you doing this.. I could never do it. I’m a wuss.” This explains that Junior is brave for leaving the rez to go to a different school.

i would say junior is caring because even though the person he called his bestfriend bullied him when junior was moving to a different school he told him that he should come along with him to start new beginnings because rez was not a good place to be as mr.p told junior. mr.p said “the kids act the way they do because their parents have nothing and everybody lost it” so that encourage junior to move to a different school and he wanted to take his bestfriend with him.

he’s strong because instead of staying in his school he switch schools so he can make it somewhere in life and left his friends , and got punched by rowdy. In the text it says “ Bang ! Rowdy punched me “ Bang ! I hit the ground. Bang ! my nose bled like a firework “

Junior is really strong. Junior is strong because he has gone through so much in the book it says “I was only six months and I was supposed to croak during the surgery” and to only be six months and getting brain surgery is being strong. Junior also deals with brain damage and bullying and he get picked on every day.

I would call junior courageous and shy. I think this because through all the trouble and poverty the reservation is dealing with he fought through it and left by Mr. P's advice to become successful. Even after his mom said "the other Indians will be mad at you" He didn't care or care enough to stop what he wanted to do. He ended up losing his best friend this way (Rowdy) but he didn't pity himself and make everyone pity him and just went on. Although while he was an outcast at the new white school he started making friends but he was still stuck on rowdy which is why I think he is shy. He was closed minded at first but even when he made friends he wanted to have his old friend back. "Rowdy might be the most important person in my life, " Instead of trying to make new friends he wanted Rowdy back because he knew him well.

I’d say he’s a low key sort of nice person that doesn’t really care what people think because he went to another school knowing people would judge him for it and especially for leaving his tribe.“I could handle the kicks”
He says this and I interpreted it as he’s strong enough to push through and keep persevering .
