Flight


Flight
by Alexie Sherman

The book starts out with a kid that goes by Zits. Zits joins yet another foster family he does not care for. Zits runs off and is quickly captured by the police. While in the cell he meets other juvenile delinquents, including one named Justice who becomes his friend. After Zits returns to his foster parents the pretty boy comes and takes him away. The boy tells Zits about the Native Americans and how their lives are different and they are not free. The boys name is Justice and they soon begin some discussion of a "Ghost Dance" . The Discussion soon leads into Zits shooting up a bank, as he pulls out his guns one man says "Your not real". Zits is shot and sent into a whirlwind of different bodies where he learns something different each time. Though his visions he learns a lot about life and people. Zits begins a new life. I recommend this book.
