Kids are crazy over this Manga Series so I decided to read Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto volume one. This book was hard to follow but I wanted to gain some information as a libraraian on why and what students like about this book and character. The background I got was that he didn't know his parent died for him and he was a trouble maker until he found his true meaning of his life.

 As the story begins, the character Naruto is looking for a chance to prove himself in his land of Konoha that he can be a great leader and ninja. Naruto's father was the hokage of the village at one time but had to sacrifice himself to protect the village. Hidden leaf is name of the village in which Naruto has to defend.  Sakura is another character who is a girl that Naruto is in love with. He tries to win over her interest in him but she is not in love with him but with his friend/foe named Sasuke. Naruto has the nine tails beast inside of him. The ninth one is going to be harder to control his power. Chakura is power that is what is inside of you. Naruto grows and becomes able to use his powers. Sasuske leaves the Hidden leaf village but comes back to fight over Naruto. Naruto wins and they become friends that fight together. This book entails the academy each one of them have to go through to learn jujitsu.
