Bobby's bad, everyone knows he's bad and he's convenient to blame even on the rare occasions when he didn't do it. Testing his teacher's patience to the limit, the real Bobby suddenly finds that Miss Fox isn't the nasty person he thought. He discovers that she has feelings and can be hurt. A wonderful story with the true feel of the classroom about it. Bobby grows up learning as much about himself on the way, as he does about Miss Fox.
