Since he was little, Capricorn Cap Anderson
has lived on a farm commune and has been
home-schooled by his hippie grandmother,
Rain. When Rain breaks her hip in a fall from
a tree and is hospitalized, Cap is forced to
attend the local middle school. Although he
knows a lot about Zen Buddhism, nothing has
prepared him for the politics of public school,
where students take advantage of his naivety.
