sample papers on Alexie book

After reading the essay titled "The Stupid Horse" I found this to be the most interesting by far. I would have never thought to compare juniors life, to a story told by his father at the end of the book. The person that wrote this essay had plenty of evidence to follow there accusations and/or statements.
what I thought was a valid point was in the 2nd paragraph where he made his first case, "The Turtle Lake would represent the reservation where Junior lives and the horse would then be Junior.  It symbolizes how Junior feels the reservation drowning him.  By staying in the reservation he will never prosper like he dreams and will be stuck to live on the reservation with the burden of disappointment."
After this case was made I was sold on the idea of how juniors dads story related to his entire journey in this book. the other essays were good and I liked "the path of a child".
