Holly Dowell (hollyd19) | 5 comments I remember reading this in school and I am nearly positive the title involved ghosts in some way. All I remember of the plot was a Native American child sent to a white boarding school and about their struggles to preserve their identity. Read in approx. 2004.

Holly Dowell (hollyd19) | 5 comments Nope, but thanks for trying!

I do think it had a gray-ish cover with a fairly long name.
