(3) 4-6 In this triumphant youngest-sibling story set in 1965, Norman wins money in a contest and takes his Jewish Canadian family on their first vacation to Miami Beach. There Norman meets a girl, resuscitates the career of has-been comedian Mort, and learns to stand up to his bully brothers. Even if the plot isn't quite believable, the characters sure are--especially likable hero Norman.
