Davey is blind - and he is perfectly capable of doing everything on his own. His well meaning classmates stop offering help when they see ow able Davey is. They respect his self-reliance - until he tries to play kickball. After several missed kicks and a trampled base keeper, no one wants Davey on his team. Working together, the children figure out a way to offer help that respects Davey's unigue abilities and his desire for freedom. In this seamless tale, based on a true story, the children realize that interdependence can be just as important and rewarding as independence.
