Description
David Lee is twelve years old and disappointed in his father Earl, a once-famous rodeo clown, who has quit the circuit and moved David to a small town in Vermont to start a new life. David has a hard time adjusting to life as a "normal" boy - going to school every day, living in a real house, and other parts of living outside of the rodeo crowd.
