In Son of a Trickster by Eden Robinson we meet Jared, a 16 year old teenager who makes the best weed cookies and is also the most selfless person to ever exist. He takes care of adults twice and triple his age and looks after his family and friends while also dealing with alcoholism and poverty. Throughout the book I constantly wanted to jump in and hug/defend this kid who is abused by toxic family members and friends.
