Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Twelve-year-old Jody Baxter has always wanted a pet of his own. But his family is desperately poor, and so his mother would never allow it - until Jody inadvertently finds himself the caretaker of an orphaned fawn after his father is forced to kill the deer's mother. Based on Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings' Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, this thoughtful and touching story marks a turning point for young Jody, as he painfully comes to understand his family's responsibilities with respect to the yearling, especially when it begins to eat their precious few crops. Peter Strauss and Jean Smart star.
