The book, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian, is a game changer. First, the book is engaging for all reading levels. The book changes the way students view themselves in comparison to other students and cultures. This book really deals with understanding other cultures and how cultural appropriation can hurt others. Sherman Alexie has captured how a teenager really feels in the world today, regardless of race or culture. He has written a book that students love and will read no matter how reluctant the reader might be. Finding gems like this book is rare and even more rare in the world we live in today.
