Opposites attract,and a young man finds out just how important friends are in this wonderfully told true story. The clever (and of course,cute *s*) Jack Kelly runs head-first into the "walking mouth",David Jacobs. Joining forces,the two newsies go up against one of the most powerful men of New York....Joseph Pulitzer. Pulitzer's jacked up the prices,and in turn gets a strike that spreads all over the state of New York. With the help of the "big boys",these newsies show Pulitzer exactly who he's messin with.
