Jesse is an eleven-year-old boy tackling many problems in life, especially fitting into a new school. Luckily, he meets Kate. She has curly black hair, braces, and an infectious smile.

Kate wants to Save the Whales and needs Jesse's help. But they haven't counted on Hunter, the school bully, who appears to enjoy hurling insults at random.

With Hunter's catchphrase 'Ha!' echoing through the school, something or someone has to give. But will it be Jesse? Kate? Or is there more to Hunter than everyone thinks?
