Synopsis

The  year  is  1967.  Rocketships  fuel  the  imaginations  of  all  kids, including nine  year-old  Peter  Piper-a boy  who  knows  much  more about  the  world  now  than he will when he grows up. Forced to wear girls' hand-me-downs and bullied  by  the  neighborhood  boys,  Peter inhabits  a  more humane world of monsters, vampires and Martians-a world where young boys can rocket to the moon. In need  of  a  foster family,  ten  year-old  Native  Sam  comes  to  stay  with  the  Pipers. Kindred spirits by nature, friends out of need, Peter and Sam  set  out to  silence  the taunts of their tormentors. They will build a rocket and make it fly.
