Description
The School Champ tells the story of Kavnen, a boy who craves good things as education, and difficulties he faces. Kavnen had not been to school until the age of eight, being the son of a drunk and womanizer who cares nothing about educating him. His mother, Tabitha, who cares, does not at first have the means to cater for his education until a neighbor drives a broomstick into Kavnen's eyes because he comes to her house to see a movie through the window. Provoked by this maltreatment of her son, Tabitha tries hard and sends Kavnen together with his sister to school in the belief that he would one day be able to buy himself a TV and a DVD player. Even so, Kavnen finds that there are still other challenges and problems that he must surmount, both at home and at school. Can he?
