Buster is a pre-teen kid with a fanciful background. His father is a magician, albeit out-of-work, and his grandfather got shot out of a cannon for a living. But Buster's present is not much fun. At school, he is mobbed. At home, he must care for a handicapped sister. Still, he remains an optimist, and he has a vivid imagination. As he says, "People with both feet on the ground don't hang from trees."
