Alan, Richie and Johnny-Boy, ten-years-old all, share friendship, adventures and life in the Red Hook Housing Projects in 1953. The trio enjoy idyllic summer days playing in Coffey Park, (games like Johnny-on-the pony, marbles and more) … working to make enough money to see the Brooklyn, Dodgers … exploring their world … building friendships that will forge a lifetime of memories. Along the way, life's universal lessons of family, friendship, loss and money are learned all wrapped in the joys of growing up Brooklyn.
