A Boy Knight

"A Boy Knight" by Martin J. Scott is a tale from the past that shows us the life of Frank Mulvy, a boy who is the secretary of his boys' club. As Frank grows up, the story looks at important ideas like doing what's right, being a good friend, and facing tough choices. We see these ideas mostly through Frank's relationships with his friends, a bully named Bill Daly, and Father Boone, who is a kind priest. Early in the story, Frank shows his kind heart by helping a beggar, which gives us a clue about his good nature. As Frank takes on a leadership role in the club, he also deals with trouble caused by Bill, who struggles with his behavior. Their disagreements lead to a big fight that changes how the boys get along. With Father Boone's guidance, the boys face tough moral questions, and their experiences help them grow as people.
