(2) 4-6 The summer he turns ten, Dillon Dillon receives a life-changing answer to his inquiry about his double-barreled name: his parents died in a plane crash when he was a toddler; the man he thinks is his father is his uncle. During his subsequent interactions with a loon family, he parses his muddled identity. This is an emotionally intricate and symbolically charged novel with an original and memorable protagonist.
