(2) 4-6 Jarrett's mom takes in foster children. The latest arrival, toddler Treasure, comes with a surprise: her older brother, Kevon, will be sharing Jarrett's room. Relations between the boys are tense from the start, so Jarrett concocts an ill-advised plan to get Kevon's estranged father to take Kevon home. The myriad subplots threaten to overwhelm the narrative, but Jarrett's credible voice carries the day.
