Growing up in 1940s rural Manitoba was very different from what it is today. Mickey Hersak spent his days helping his parents on their farm while learning about animals and the outdoors, and playing in the surrounding rivers, ponds and fields with his siblings.

One summer, when his family was berry picking near a national park, they startled an abandoned and starving white-tailed fawn which they rescued. The orphan quickly recovered at their farm and adopted Mickey's family as his own. He was dubbed Bambi after a book that Mickey had read in school.

Life with Bambi proved to be a series of unusual and delightful adventures, but was often more troublesome than anyone could ever have imagined. This true story chronicles the few precious years this prairie boy spent with his childhood pet.
