"Arrow Over the Door" by James Watling tells the story of a young Quaker boy named Samuel who lives in early 19th-century America. Set against the backdrop of the turbulent relationship between Native Americans and European settlers, Samuel grapples with the societal expectations of his family and community regarding the violent conflicts of the time. When a Native American boy named Joseph arrives in his town, Samuel’s understanding of friendship, prejudice, and loyalty is put to the test. Through their interactions, Samuel learns about compassion and the importance of seeing beyond cultural differences, ultimately challenging the beliefs he was raised with.
