Synopsis
Manolo Olivar has to make a decision: to follow in his famous father's shadow and become a bullfighter, or to follow his heart and become a doctor., Manolo Oliver is the son of the most famous bullfighter in all of Spain. All his life Manolo has been prepared to follow in his father's footsteps, but Manolo has always known that he doesn't want to be a bullfighter. Manolo thinks of himself as a coward because he knows he lacks the one thing he needs to be a bullfighter--the unconquerable urge to fight and kill bulls. Will Manolo be able to find the courage to defy his father, family tradition, and the anticipation of his entire town and not become a bullfighter? Winner of the 1965 Newbery Medal.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "When Manolo was nine he became aware of three important facts in his life. First: the older he became, the more he looked like his father. Second: he, Manolo Oliver, was a coward. Third: everyone in the town of Arcangel expected him to grow up to be a famous bullfighter like his father."
