The book winners is whritten by Mary Ellen Lang Collura.
It is about Jordy who has gone in and out of foster homes since his mother was killed and his grandfather prisoned for murder.
Now Jordy is going to live with him (since Joe has done his sentence), on an Indian reservoir. When he arrives, it is with mixed feelings. Jordy is curious of his ancestors and his cultural heritage, but he is also very affected by his turbulent childhood and adolescence. After a while, in which he tries to run away, gets into fights and grow a strong hate towards white racists, Jordy finds comfort in a horse which is given to him by the representative from The Department of Indian Affairs in Christmas present.
I think this book is quite okey so far but I think Mary whrites little to mouch about the horse...

I think you mean "reserve" instead of "reservoir."
