Owen Foote: Frontiersman
Owen is an child who lives with his parents and his sister. He has a best friend named Joseph and in the woods they have both built a tree fort. They play in it all the time and act like they think a wilderness man would act. They both have coonskin hats and they pretend they are like Daniel Boone. Two older boys visit their grandmother in the same neighborhood and discover Owen and Joseph's fort. They tell Owen and Joseph that they are going to destroy it. Owen and Joseph are afraid at first and then they decide to fight back. They set booby traps for the older boys to fall into so that they will get scared and go away. The plan doesn't work out the way Owen and Joseph wanted but the boys are still scared off. In the end the older boys go home and Owen and Joseph feel like they saved their fort.
