The story centers around Harry Harding, a young boy who has plans for a new beginning as he returns to work at McMartin Brothers after a summer vacation. The novel explores themes of personal growth, responsibility, and friendship as Harry navigates his relationships with his peers, particularly his mischievous friend Teddy Burke, and faces challenges in the workplace. The opening of the book introduces Harry Harding as he enjoys the concluding chapter of a book under a horse-chestnut tree, just before a playful encounter with Teddy Burke. Their banter reveals their personalities—Harry being introspective and thoughtful, while Teddy is more impulsive and carefree. As they discuss an allegory Harry read about a king’s "Year of Promise," they decide to adopt the same mindset for their upcoming year back at work. The chapter sets the tone for their adventures at the Martin Brothers’ department store, foreshadowing both friendship and conflict as they resolve to turn their year into one of fulfillment amidst the trials they face in the workplace.
