1. “First day at Reardan today. Everyone is so different. I feel like I’m the only Indian here. Hope I can fit in somehow.”

2. ‘Basketball game today! Gonna show them I’m not just a reservation kid. Time to prove I belong out here.”

3. ‘Sometimes I hate how poor we are on the reservation. It;s like no matter how hard I try, things stay the same.”

4. “Made new friends today! It feels weird but kinda good. Maybe this new life won’t be so bad after all.”

5. “Drawing cartoons helps me deal with everything. If i can’t say it with words i'll say it with pictures.”

Junior lives on a reservation and things are hard. He goes to a new school far away where most kids aren’t native. People don't always like that, and it’s tough for him. But he makes friends and learns a lot. Even when bad stuff happens, he keeps trying to be happy and find where he fits in
