On Mar 18 2005, BONAPART said:
His uncle wanted him to stay home and work the farm. But the boy knew therer was a world out there he had to see. Yet, being a runaway meant you were outside the law - fair game. That's how he got caught on the farm gang. There was no way out, until Tiltawhirl John picked him up and taught him how to be a carnie, how to stay one step ahead of the suckers. But there was one man from the past even T-John couldn't keep ahead of. How could the kid keephim from destroying his future? Very good read. Ages 12 up.
