In The Power of One, a novel by Bryce Courteney, an abused five-year-old named Peekay is befriended by a champion boxer on a train. "'Piece a' cake, Peekay. I already told you. You're a natural.' Hoppie's words were like seedpods with wings. They flew straight out of his mouth and into my head, where they germinated in the rich, fertile, receptive soil of my mind."
