They can escape from the bullies and the boredom of fifth grade, and dream all they like. They take over a part of a nearby forest that's only accessible by swinging on a rope over the creek, and name it Terabithia. Since they're both outcasts, Jess and Leslie spend a lot of time together.
At first Jess is crushed, but later he and Leslie end up becoming good friends. This dream is shattered on the first day of school, though, when a new girl named Leslie shows up and runs faster than anyone.
He's about to enter the fifth grade and dreams of being the fastest runner there.
He likes to draw and to run, and is kind of lonely he's out-of-place in his family and the only person he really gets along with is his little sister May Belle. Jess Aarons lives in a small town called Lark Creek and has a hard family life.
