A heartbreakingly warm and touching tale of a young orphaned boy, sold out of an orphanage to work on a farm; and of his relationship within equally orphaned beautiful, black fawn that he one day stumbles upon in the woods. Will their friendship survive the many obstacles the adults pose in their way, such as hunting?.. A story with a classic, timeless and universal feel and message to it. (By Jim Kjelgaard, published in 1958)
