As if that isn't challenge enough, her only ally in this endeavor, is the headmaster, Lord John, who loves children, referees cricket matches, and plucks Ada’s very, very last nerve, even though she knows his devotion to the children is genuine, as is the orphanage��s need for funds. Opposites don’t always attract, but in this case, they must work together for thirty days, or neither Ada��s nor John’s dreams will ever come true.
