A high school senior in small town Arkansas finds a new boy in class on the first day of school--a handsome exchange student from Turkey whose presence in town causes a stir. As the friendship develops, hearts and minds are stirred as well, especially when the young Turk attempts to teach his new American friend the traditional Turkish sport of oil wrestling. Keith Hale, author of the acclaimed novel Cody, delivers a young adult short story that also will find an audience with adults due to its universal multicultural themes and likeable characters.
