Twelve-year-old Beekman O'Day has lived all over Manhattan, his smalltime wheeler-dealer father forever struggling to land a "big deal" and stay ahead of his debtors. A new school and new neighborhood--with eccentric, lovable neighbors--help turn things around. The warm father-son relationship in this feel-good novel will appeal to readers.
