Summary
When Nizhoni has to take something to school that shows her Navajo culture, she feels nervous. How will classmates respond to her culture and the item she shares? Nizhoni decides to take the rug she and her grandmother made. The next day, Nizhoni is anxious to show her rug, but her classmates are enthusiastic. Her words remind them of people in their families and things they do, and Nizhoni tells them more about how she and her grandmother made the rug. In the end, Nizhoni realizes that being different is not scary!
