Childhood Drama - Jack lived in constant fear of two bullies at his school, though he could tell no one about them. When he could no longer hide their beatings from his mother, and the court system turned the two boys loose, Clarissa decided to send her son away to live in rural Texas with his Uncle Kevin. Uncle Kevin, a widower, had never had any children of his own and knew very little about how to help Jack out, but they discovered they needed each other. Uncle Kevin used the work and life required of a farmer to teach Jack valuable life lessons. As Jack grew physically and spiritually stronger, he learned how to deal with bullies as he struggled to defend the farm animals from a menacing hawk.
