Book
Darkness calls / by Steven Keewatin Sanderson.
This is the story of a teenager who is bullied at school, is misunderstood by his teacher and feels socially isolated from his family. Even though Kyle has tremendous artistic talent and the support of a good friend, he finds life overwhelming and considers taking his own life. It's a story of one Aboriginal youth's struggle to find his way. Note: Darkness Calls has been turned into a moving short, in colour, in a First Nations language (Gitxsan, from the Hazelton, BC area) for the additional benefit of language retention (contact the publisher).
