Reviews
"An insightful, engaging novel. Diverse, distinctly drawn characters...contribute to Beekman's growing awareness of the importance of personal responsibility and having faith in oneself, others - and the future." -- Booklist "Kids...will care about Beekman and Leo, whose relationship is wonderfully close, funny, and real. You could say this story is a big deal." -- Kirkus Reviews "Featuring interesting, well-developed characters and sprinkled with gentle humor, this novel strikes a pleasing balance between heart-wrenching and heartwarming moments, and provides a happily ever after ending" -- School Library Journal "De Guzman follows his strong debut novel, Melonhead, with another compelling story. There is a quaint, old-world gentleman quality to this novel." -- VOYA "De Guzman strikes a good balance between humor and pathos, creates some memorable characters and depicts an affecting father-son bond." -- Starred, Publishers Weekly "De Guzman creates an attractively quirky character in Beekman. Readers...will be gratified that all of his big deals come through." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Beekman takes things in his own hands and discovers how to go somewhere new, and with a little help from his friends, stands his ground."  -- The Reading Teacher

Synopsis
Twelve-year-old Beekman O'Day has spent his entire life moving from place to place with his wheeler-dealer father, Leo. They've lived everywhere in Manhattan, from hotels to apartments to rented rooms, and Beekman has attended nine schools. Now Beekman is in a new home and about to enter school, ready to go through the motions of meeting new kids and teachers. He knows that this lifestyle has got to go; that it's time to make a deal with Leo and put an end to their pick-up-and-go shenanigans. And with a little help from the neighbors and his first best friend, Beekman is going to do all it takes to make his big deal happen. This sly and wise second novel charts the course of a young man who is discovering how to go somewhere new by standing his ground and staying in place., Tired of the frequent moves that he and his father must make, twelve-year-old Beekman begins to make connections with neighbors and classmates after settling in a small, unusual New York City neighborhood.
