Harris and Me 1-100

An eleven year old city kid, whose parents are alcoholics, gets sent to live with relatives on their family farm. No one is around his age except Harris, the youngest of the Larsons. When he gets there, he meets everyone. Harris starts asking questions about him and his parents. He noticed that everytime Harris cusses or uses inappropriate language, his sister Glennis slaps him up side the head, which happens a lot during the day. Early next morning, Harris wakes him up for breakfast. He is too tired to want to get up but is very hungry. He is also curious who Louie was, there hired man that lives with them. He gets to the table and sees louie, a very old and dirty man. As the pancakes came, Louie jabbed at them with his fork and got them all. He said that he had never seen anything eat like Louie, devouring the pancakes like they were nothing. After breakfast, they head out to the barn and Harris offers him a cigarette. He takes a drag and immediately starts vomiting. As he is still dry-heaving, they go to get the cows. He loses sight of Harris and all of a sudden gets hit directly in the groin and then right in his head and goes out. Turns out it was one of the cows named Vivian. As he gets back on his feet, Harris impatiently tells him they have a lot to do and they head to the barn. When Harris enters the barn, he starts looking for "Ernie", one of the roosters. Ernie jumps on him and they start going at it. Harris asks him if he wants to play war. He thought Harris meant with Ernie, but he meant the pigs. Harris called them "commie japs", something he got from Louie. Using boards as guns, they sneak up on the pigs. All of a sudden, Harris jumps on one of the pigs and starts stabbing it with an imaginary knife. As he does the same, he slips off and lands right in the mud and pig manure. They are so filthy and disgusting that they head down to the river and wash off. After another meal, they go out to mow and he finds out who buzzer is. It was Louie's pet lynx that Harris wanted to stay away from. Sometimes during the day they would look at his collection of comic books. Harris is interested in Tarzan and wants to swing from a rope like he does. He climbs a tree and tells him to hand him a rope. He tests it and then hands it to Harris. Harris yells like Tarzan and starts to swing down. When that happens, Ernie starts to attack him and almost goes right into Harris's path as he is swinging. He grabbed Harris while Ernie was on him still and swung right over the pig pen. Right then, the rope breaks. Without wasting time, Harris jumps right on one of the pigs again. They start talking about playing Cowboys and Indians when Buzzer jumps  on Harris and they start wrestling around. Just then, Claire calls to Harris to wash up. They were going to head into town for a picture show. After the movies, he got tired and went to watch the dancing. He falls asleep and wakes up to Knute carrying him and Harris back to the truck. The next day, Harris leads there horse Bill to the barn and wants to ride it like Gene did in the movie. As they try to swing down, Harris holds on too long and lands on Bill's back side. As he is about to slide off, Bill bucks him off and kicks him right in the stomach.
