Lark becomes great friends with Beverly after the outspoken, gregarious little girl teaches her to swim at the Knights of Columbus Memorial Day Picnic. Beverly is very poor, living with her mother and siblings when Lark meets her. After Beverly's mother gets a job, the family's life and lifestyle improve.
