The opening portion introduces readers to Dorothea, an imaginative eleven-year-old girl who finds herself infatuated with an older boy named Amiel. As she engages in a vivid inner world filled with romantic fantasies, her hopes and dreams clash with the stark reality that Amiel sees her merely as a young tomboy.
