When Jim Kristofics family moved across the country to Ganado, Arizona, his life changed forever. Ganado was a Rez-town on a reservation the size of West Virginia. For Jims mother, living among the Navajo was a childhood dream come true. For Jim whod just barely learned to tie his own shoelaces it was the end of the world and the beginning of something new and unforgettable. With compelling honesty, Navajos Wear Nikes tracks a modern life on the Navajo Reservation, from childhood to manhood. Kristofic recounts the painful, fascinating history of Ganado, Arizona, and tells the story of a boy trying to understand the truth of a people, and the truth about himself.
