About this listen
Best-selling author Sherman Alexie tells the story of Junior, a budding cartoonist growing up on the Spokane Indian Reservation. Determined to take his future into his own hands, Junior leaves his troubled school on the rez to attend an all-white farm town high school where the only other Indian is the school mascot.
Heartbreaking, funny, and beautifully written, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, which is based on the author's own experiences, coupled with poignant drawings by Ellen Forney that reflect the character's art, chronicles the contemporary adolescence of one Native American boy as he attempts to break away from the life he was destined to live.
With a forward by Markus Zusak, interviews with Sherman Alexie and Ellen Forney, and four-color interior art throughout, this edition is perfect for fans and collectors alike.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The accuracy of the story regarding indigenous life culture and social values.
The reference to alcohol abuse reinforces stereotypes of Indigenous people’s, and while relevant, wish could have been avoided.

Great book for anyone especially
Teenagers and young adults. It is ultimately readable and Sherman Alexie creates a likeable protagonist in Junior Spirit. He has a great personality, is self-effacing but has an indomitable spirit that doesn’t quit. Lots of lol moments and moments you want to cheer for him and cry with him. An enjoyable read.
