The Literacy Autobiography is part summary and part personal response to Sherman Alexie’s short story,  “Superman and Me” (“SM”). Originally published in 1997, “SM” is a personal story of Alexie’s  relationship to reading as a young boy growing up on an Indian reservation. In the Literacy  Autobiography, you will summarize Alexie’s short story and then use it as a springboard to narrate your  own story, which will be formed by answering one of the response prompts provided below.
