Seven-year-old Fidgety Bram thinks a lot about the world around him. He is terribly excited about entering the first grade, but ends up in the class of Mr. Fish, the strict teacher. Mr. Fish is completely uninterested in the details of the world inside Bram’s mind and does whatever it takes to make Bram do things the “right” way. Bram’s parents struggle with helping the two of them adapt to each other.
