Pat Conroy, a young white teacher, was assigned to teach on an isolated island in South Carolina. The island is full of illiterate black residents. He found that the illiterate and forgotten children on the island knew almost nothing about the outside world. they called him Conrak (the children's own language) and were not very interested in the colorful world outside. Conroy had to start looking for a way to communicate with his children, teach them what they should learn and give them the guardianship they deserve at school, even though people here still regard it as superfluous and hold grudges against him. With his patience and love, he finally turned enemies into friends with local students and parents.
