Book Description
A story with a message and never a dull moment. 17-year-old Frankie Vincente was sent back to the ninth grade due to an accident that affected his brain function. But in spite of his disabilities he never gave up. A likeable kid with a big heart, he lived with his family on their 100-acre grape orchard in central California. His sister Anna was an attractive 22-year-old who gave Frankie a ride to Walnut Street School in her red convertible classic Mustang every Friday. When Calvin, a mean school bully, saw Frankie being driven to school by his hot sister, he became furiously jealous. He and his cronies wouldn’t stop bullying Frankie, until Katie, who they called Red Headed Kate, saved the day on Christmas morning. Some would think that Katie had a crush on Frankie, but she would never tell. Thanks to Kate’s help, Frankie, who had been the victim, victoriously becomes the town hero.
