For next month, we'll be looking at 'The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian' by Sherman Alexie. Copies of the book are available to be picked-up or reserved at the main circulation desk. Meeting will be held on Tuesday August 31st at 5:00 p.m. here at the library.
About the book:
In his first book for young adults, bestselling author Sherman Alexie tells the story of Junior, a budding cartoonist who leaves his school on the Spokane Indian Reservation to attend an all-white high school. This heartbreaking, funny, and beautifully written tale, coupled with poignant drawings that reflect the character’s art, is based on the author’s own experiences and chronicles the contemporary adolescence of one Native American boy as he attempts to break away from the life he seems destined to live.
