"In this high-interest accessible novel for teen readers, a young teen is thrilled when she gets into art school but shocked to learn that some students feel she doesn't belong there"--Provided by publisher.

From the publisher:
Jennifer McCaffrey has been working hard on her art for years and is thrilled when she is accepted to a prestigious art school. The school is everything she always thought it would be, mostly. There is one group of kids who seem to resent her and say she only got in because of her skin color. Jen, who loves to create new pieces of artwork that incorporate her Indigenous heritage, finds herself a target when the group tells her to stop being "so Indian". The night before the big art show at school, Jen's beading art project is defaced. Jen has to find a way not to let the haters win. The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.
