Young Native Americans contribute poems and stories about personal identity, family traditions, living on the reservation, and leaving home to visit Disneyland or live in New York. Though the authors' youth is sometimes obvious in these selections, the collection is generally deeply felt and thought-provoking, providing a window into the world of contemporary Native adolescents, as well as serving as inspiration to other teenage writers.
