(2) YA Martin J. Miller, sixteen, and his mom lived happily in Winnemucca, Nevada, until she met Mr. Joe Wonderful, who relocated them to Seattle. While Mom and Mr. Joe are on their honeymoon, Marty's new stepbrother tells him to get lost. So the Walt Whitman-spouting maverick does. Docile and dorky, Marty is immensely appealing. His witty voice lends credibility to his venture in this brief novel of home lost, home regained.
