Review: Struggles of a Alaskan Boy
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 12 23, 2013
This book is the story of an Alaskan boy who is filled with hate toward those who have hurt him and needs to learn to respond with love and forgiveness because bitterness, after all, hurts the one filled with it most of all. The author writes in a creative and appealing fashion, portraying realistic racial tension and teenage struggles well, but does not seem to wrap up several details at the end of the story very well. In other words, while the situation between the Alaskan boy and his white teacher appear to be happily resolved after a long tension of bitterness and uncertainty, there are other individuals that the reader never finds out about. Overall, it is a creative story but could use some polishing and a better concluding scene.(I received a free download of this book in exchange for an honest review.)
