Quiet, shy, and self-conscious, Nashasha only wants to stay at home. Her classmates call her Ch'izhii, the girl with the rough skin - a criticism impossible for her to ignore or live down. However, one evening after school, Nashasha's grandmother teaches her about the uses of chiih. Chiih is clay that heals and protects the skin. Will this teaching help end the teasing at school?
