Plot

In a small town in 1938, adolescent Sammy Perkins and his sibling Ellie find Alice alone in an unheated shack, where her stepfather had forced her to live because of her hearing problems and epileptic seizures. Alice's mother Ada had agreed to marry her 2nd husband before he became abusive.

Sammy and Ellie quickly grow close to Alice despite their father's concerns over the known cruelty of Alice’s stepfather. Together, they garner assistance for Alice from their grandmother who becomes Alice’s teacher and from the town's doctor, who manages to acquire a hearing aid along with medicine that substantially reduces the number and severity of Alice’s epileptic seizures.
