In Florida, Kate, Justin, and Chip Martin spend a long, hot summer running their farm while their mother works. When Kate's goat runs away, it ends up at the home of a black couple, the Wilsons, who make the children feel a part of their family. Kate learns a lot about herself, her family, and prejudice, while the Martins deal with possibly losing their home, their dog being eaten by an alligator, and a hurricane. Some violence.
