Julie and Nicole live in a close-knit neighborhood where everyone is friends.
Recently, an older man named Mr. Radcliffe moved in to one of the houses that had been for sale on their street.
Mr. Radcliffe keeps to himself and does not talk to the other neighbors.
People begin to gossip about Mr. Radcliffe, saying that he is unfriendly, and he must have something to hide since he never comes outside to socialize.
One day, Julie and Nicole are out for a run in the neighborhood. Julie trips over a rock and twists her ankle. She can’t walk, and the girls don’t have a phone to call for help.
Mr. Radcliffe comes out of his house with first aid supplies. He helps Julie into his car and gives the girls a ride home.
Julie and Nicole learn that Mr. Radcliffe is not unfriendly and mean; he is a little lonely, somewhat shy, and definitely misunderstood by most of the neighbors.
