Virginia is a young girl becoming slowly but surly a very beautiful young women. But during her tender years she is involved in conflicts between friends, right and wrong, and wondering what to do during circumstances. When her friend, Jenny Wood, is always coming up with plans and harmless gags, to trick people, Virginia must make a decision about what to do. Virginia's efforts to convert Jenny to the Christian faith seems hopeless, and Jenny shows no interest in the Lord what so ever. Can Virginia change her mind, and show her the truth? Through out her tender years, Virginia is faced with many difficult decisions, and Jenny's pressure doesn't help her any, and then comes a mistake that almost totally ruins the lives of Virginia and her friends physically, and spiritually.
