David Jacobs has always been the type of guy to stick to the path. That is 'till a delivery truck throws a massive fork in the road. His dad is put out of commission and fired by his job, and so David has no choice but to become a newsboy to feed the family. Enter Jack Kelly, a cocky guy who is just the type to get on David's nerves. Despite his... personality... David finds that he doesn't hate Jack all that much. He's kind to his little brother Les, and seems to fit right into the family. It's... different than David has ever experienced before. He doesn't worry about it too much though. There's so many other things to worry about after all. Each one way more important than how Jack's smile lights up a room... right?
