Book excerpt: The mixture of joie de vivre and emotional impact make this play both delightful entertainment and gripping drama. It has a quality that casts a magic spell over its audience. Caroline Ramsey, 15, has shut herself up in a dream world, refusing to believe her father is dead. To her, he was the most wonderful man in the world--"everything he touched sparkled." Each night, Caroline waits for the 6:15 as though her father were to arrive on it. Her little game of pretendin' makes a safe little world for her. A neighbor lad, Tod Allen, 17, is also trying to run away from the world because the people he loves (his mother and father) are seeking a divorce. He must choose between them, which is breaking his heart. As Caroline and Tod share their troubles he helps her grow up and she, using the marvelous philosophy her father taught her, helps him find happiness
