This book is in rough, but very readable condition. (SEE pictures). The cover is slightly bent around the edges & there are initials inside the front cover. It has been well loved. It is an excellent story & it's condition shows that it has been read a time or two. This book is geared for an older child or preteen. It is recommended for ages 10 & up, but I read & thoroughly enjoyed the story! It has a valuable lesson we can all learn from. Dealing with Juvenile delinquency, rehabilitation, child abuse & anger. The Native American influence makes this a very entertaining & thought provoking story that anyone will enjoy.
