Harry is sent to live with his uncle in the countryside to learn about business and management.The two boys meet when Harry takes a ride on Tom's ferry. They become fast friends and spend their days exploring the countryside and learning about each other's lives. However, their friendship is tested when Harry's father plans to build a bridge across the river, which would put Tom out of a job. Harry is torn between his loyalty to his friend and his loyalty to his family.As the story unfolds, the boys face challenges and obstacles that test their friendship and their values.
