Rory is a third grad boy living in a small town. He has many friends and many talents, but the one thing that he just can not seem to get a handle of is skipping stones. He has tried and tried and everyone around him seems to be able to figure it out just fine. This makes him very upset, but he will NOT give up. Until one day something terrible happens, and Rory must learn a very important lesson or he could be in a great deal of trouble!
