"Rain Is Not My Indian Name" follows the story of a young Native American girl named Rain, who is dealing with the recent loss of her best friend. As she navigates her grief, she also grapples with her identity and cultural heritage. When her family moves from Kansas to a new town, Rain's struggles are compounded as she adjusts to new surroundings and faces the challenges of fitting in. Encouraged by her supportive family and the community around her, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, ultimately finding strength in her identity and a renewed sense of purpose.
