When he was just a babe, his momma passed on to the great beyond, leaving him all alone in this harsh world. The poor boy was shipped off to an orphanage, where he spent the next nine years surrounded by cold walls and stern caretakers instead of a loving family. At the orphanage, Jimmy found solace in caring for the animals and tending the garden. Though the work was hard for a young boy, it taught him responsibility and gave him purpose during those lonely years. The little sprouts he nurtured gave him hope, just as the orphanage itself became the only home he'd ever known.But when the government cut funding and the orphanage was forced to shut down, twelve-year-old Jimmy's world collapsed all over again. Not a single relative stepped forward to take the boy in. No one, that is, except kindly old Grandpa Brown. So Jimmy found himself bound for Lexington, Nebraska to live with a grandfather who was already 82 years old and set in his ways, but he simply couldn't bear to see his grandson disappear into the impersonal foster system. Follow along as Jimmy learns to open his heart again to Grandpa, the neighbors, and the close-knit community of Lexington. Share in his small triumphs and setbacks as he discovers the power of love and friendship. See how one orphan boy finds light even in the deepest shadows.
