Answer: He draws.

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian is a novel by Sherman Alexie. The book tells the story of Arnold Spirit Jr., also known as "Junior," a 14 year old Native American teenager who wants to become a cartoonist. Junior claims that he draws because he "wants to talk to the world" and "wants the world to pay attention to him".
