A middle-grade novel by James Bird about a boy sent to his Ojibwe family to straighten out his life.
Will answers be enough for Benny to turn his life around and embrace his Second chance?.
Why? Finding the answer to this and so many other questions prove tougher than any military-style boot camp.
Not only is boot camp not what he expects, but his rehabilitation seems to be in the hands of the tribal leader\'s daughter, who wears a mask.
Soon he is on his way to Grand Portage, Minnesota, to live with his father - the man Benny hasn\'t seen in years.
But he\'s been caught one too many times, and when he appears before a tough judge, his mother proposes sending him to boot camp at the Ojibwe reservation where they used to live.
Benjamin Waterfalls comes from a broken home, and the quickest fix he\'s found for his life is to fill that emptiness with stuff he steals and then sells.
