Bill "Doc" Key, a former slave who became a veterinarian, loved animals and respected their feelings at a time when most people didn't. After his favorite horse died giving birth, Doc turned his attention to her colt, Jim Key. Discovering Jim's uncanny intelligence, Doc began teaching Jim to identify letters, add, subtract, and more. Most people thought Doc was a fraud, until a group of Harvard professors vouched for Jim's intelligence. With the support of the SPCA, Doc and Jim toured the country amazing audiences and spreading a message about animal rights.
