Palmer knows that once he reaches the age of ten, he will be expected to do the unthinkable. To all the other boys in his town, it was a time to look forward to; but to Palmer, it was a source of dread. His father was a wringer, and he knew it would be expected of him too. He becomes great friends with the neighbor girl who shares the same disdain about the day as he does. Despite what other boys his age are expected to do, Palmer decides to rise up and act upon his beliefs rather than following the standard. The content in this book may be disturbing to some readers, as it focuses on a hunting tradition. 228 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
