Tree is six foot three-and-a-half inches and still growing. He’s never really fit in at school or on the basketball team. And since his parents’ divorce he doesn’t even fit in at home.
To make matters worse, his grandpa, a Vietnam vet, has just had part of his leg amputated and has to learn to walk again, with Tree’s help. But thanks to his grandpa and Sophie, the new girl at school, Tree begins to realize that he can stand tall and be himself, no matter where he is.
