Everyday a young boy sits for hours on his front porch, watching from a safe distance as large scary-looking horses plod up the street, pulling the wagons of vendors and collectors for the war effort. Ashamed of his fears, he longs to be a brave like his soldier father. But no matter how hard he tries, he can’t get up the courage to approach the street horses. Finally through his search for the perfect birthday present to send his dad overseas, the boy manages to overcome his fear and take a big step toward growing into a young man who will make his father proud.
