Everyone's got a story. Pearl, Dale, Walt, and Alice are orphans- fate has literally dumped them on a street corner. To your everyday onlooker they may appear as poor, or 'needy' kids, well below the acceptable age to be on their own. They struggle, and they scavenge, and they just barely get by, but they do it together. Everyday, in every way, the positive outlook is there- even though the four children vary in age (and drastically in personalities) they're happy. Nothing is taken for granted. Even when it seems as though nothing is all that's available.
