Two brothers come home to an orchard
Beverley and Felix King ride a train away from Toronto. Their father has taken work in Rio de Janeiro, and their mother died before they were old enough to remember her. So the boys go to Uncle Alec and Aunt Janet on the family homestead.
The drive to Carlisle shows them a gentle uncle with tired blue eyes just like their father's. In the dark they spot the huge willow that Grandfather King grew from a switch. Everything matches their father's stories, and the boys feel they have come home.
At supper they meet Dan, Felicity and Cecily. Later, in bed, they hear Felicity call Felix too fat. Still, both boys care most about what the Story Girl will think of them.
