Trevor McKinney is a twelve-year-old boy who accepts the challenge that his teacher gives his class: to earn extra credit by coming up with a plan to change the world for the better -- and to put that plan into action. The idea that Trevor comes up with is so simple and so naive that when others learn of it they are dismissive. What is his idea? Trevor chooses three people for whom he will do a favor. When those people thank him and ask how they might pay him back, he tells them they should each "pay it forward" by choosing three people for whom they can do favors, and in turn telling those people to pay it forward. Does his plan work? No. And yes -- it works wonderfully, but only after it has seemed to Trevor that maybe all his efforts have been for naught. In the end, Pay It Forward is the story of seemingly ordinary people made extraordinary by the simple faith of a child.
