Too bad the white world doesn't accept her either. And so begins her quirky habits to gain acceptance. Apple's name, chosen by her Indian mother on her deathbed, has a double meaning: treasured apple of my eye, but also the negative connotation a person who is red, or Indian, on the outside, but white on the inside. After her wealthy father gives her the boot one summer, Apple reluctantly agrees to visit her Native American relatives on the Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation in northern North Dakota for the first time. Apple learns to deal with the culture shock of Indian customs and the Native Michif language, while she tries to find a connection to her dead mother. She also has to deal with a vengeful Indian man who loved her mother in high school but now hates Apple because her mom married a white man. Bouncing in the middle of two cultures, Apple meets her Indian relatives, shatters Indian stereotypes, and learns what it means to find her place in a world divided by color." -- $c (Source of summary not specified). 541 $d 20201123. 586 $a American Indian Youth Literature Young Adult Honor Book, 2020. 586 $a Moonbeam Award Gold in Young Adult Fiction, 2018. 650 $a Motherless families $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Racially mixed children $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Ojibwa Indians $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Ojibwa Indians $x Mixed descent $v Juvenile fiction. 651 $a North Dakota $v Juvenile fiction. 651 $a Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians of North Dakota $v Juvenile fiction. 651 $a Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation (N.D.) $v Juvenile fiction. 830 $a Contemporary voices of Indigenous peoples series ; $v 1. 830 $a Contemporary voices of indigenous peoples series ; $v vol. 1. 941 $a 3 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240502014253.0 952 $l VYPA964 $d 20220212025527.0 952 $l CUPC586 $d 20210102010100.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=27E954024CC811EBB769DBBC20ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
