The Code Talker by: Joseph Bruchac was a very descriptive and intriguing book about a young Navajo boy named Ned Begay who was a marine in World War II. He goes through many problems with racism, for example lot of people would call him a lazy little Indian boy. As soon as he became a Marine, he noticed that the racism did stop with his fellow Marine buddies, but other people still thought of him as a lazy little Indian boy. This book was boring at some parts because they talked a lot about weapons. As I was reading, I noticed a lot of grammar problems. Even though there are many issues with the grammar I still think that it is a lovely book that will leave you in shock!!!!!

I think at some parts that the book was boring and it didn't grab the reader's attention. Even though some of the parts were boring to me, you might enjoy it, so check it out!
