(4) 4-6 In 1870s Poland, Leo must flee his home after an altercation with a local aristocrat. Later, Leo befriends Tomasz, a clever street urchin, and the two live by their wits as they travel toward the coast and a ship bound for America. Hinton's writing too often relies on melodrama, but his story is compelling.
