L'amicizia tramite corrispondenza epistolare tra due persone molto diverse tra loro: Mary Dinkle una paffuta ragazzina timida e solitaria di otto anni, che vive nella periferia di Melbourne, e Max Horovitz, un ebreo newyorkese di 44 anni, gravemente obeso e affetto da sindrome di Asperger, una lieve forma di autismo.
