A King in a Court of Fools

A King in a Court of Fools begins with a book - The Book of Tom - a journal writing assignment from Tom Ryans sixth-grade teacher, Sister Jeanne Lorette. Thats what she called it. Tom called it punishment. In it, he chronicles the adventures of the Caswell Gang, a group of siblings and friends who share two things in common - their love of adventure and their allegiance to Tom, their leader. The 1950s book was misplaced a long time ago, and all the children have since grown up. However, Harry, Toms youngest brother, still remembers it and retells one of its stories for us in a nostalgic, heartwarming, and humorous way that will have you wishing for adventure, too.
