In the early twentieth century, Florida was a stretch of uncultivated countryside. The Boyer family was a new resident who had just moved in. In addition to confronting the harsh environment, they also faced the unfriendly neighbors. Patty is the daughter of Boyer's family. She is a straightforward and kind girl. But she didn't like the evil neighbor next door, especially the boy who loved bragging—shoelaces, and hated Mr. Strass, who was always in trouble. Frankly, she often quarreled with laces, but the two became happy friends. Through the eyes of the little girl, we see that the firmness and kindness of the Boyer family not only affects the children of his own family, but also affects Mr. Strass. A happy and harmonious life can finally come.
