Just The Two of Us is my favorite book. It is about
“different” people, and it has changed the way I
think about things.
The book tells the story of two American boys, Joe
and Barney. They live in Wyoming. Joe is tall,
strong and confident. He plays baseball for the
school team and he has lots of friends. Barney’s
life is very different, and he is lonely. He was born
with one leg shorter than the other, and he feels
embarrassed because he has to wear special shoes.
For this reason, he doesn’t want to play sports with
the other boys – he is afraid they will laugh at him.
He prefers spending his free time alone in the
woods, and he watches and listens to the animals
and birds.
One summer, Joe goes hiking alone in the woods.
When he sees a wolf in front of him, he is scared
and he runs through the trees, but he falls and
breaks his leg. He lies there all night and all the
next day, with no food or water. The noises around
him terrify him.
Back in the town, Barney hears that Joe is missing
and he decides to do something to help. He leaves
his house in the middle of the night to find Joe, but
he doesn’t tell his parents. He cycles to the woods
and spends hours there, looking for Joe. It is dark,
but he isn’t afraid because he knows the place very
well. Before morning he finds Joe, and their
summer of adventures continues. This exciting
story, with its beautiful descriptions of Wyoming,
shows us that people can surprise us.
