Long Answer
1. Harris and the protagonist are alike in that they are both boys, they are both young, and they both have a love for adventure, “goofing” around, and getting into trouble. The boys are different in that Harris is from the farm and the protagonist is from the city. The protagonist is more likely to follow rules than Harris, and the protagonist is also more of a follower in general. Harris is more likely to take dangerous risks. The protagonist is slightly more mature than Harris and is approaching adolescence, so he is starting to have an interest in girls. Their similarities and differences mean that Harris sometimes manipulates the protagonist into getting his way, and Harris also pressures the protagonist into helping him perform dangerous stunts. Their differences cause conflict when Harris attempts to interfere with the protagonist’s conversation with a girl. (Various chapters)
2. Each chapter is a vignette that tells a story of an event or day on the farm.
