Book summary

Ten-year-old Wedge is unhappy that his mother has remarried--especially since her new husband runs a miniature golf course decorated with miniature castles, goes by the nickname "King," and wears a fake crown wherever he goes. To further complicate matters, Wedge is overweight, while his stepfather and stepbrother are tall and skinny. Will Wedge be able to find a way to accept his new stepfamily?

First Line


The castle. Although it was only seven feet tall, it appeared oddly majestic with the sun rising in the east behind it.



Publisher Notes


The author of "Words of Stone" and "Protecting Marie" returns with "a touching and funny book".("Publisher's Weekly"). Wedge's mother Sally has remarried and now they live over a miniature golf course with King and his drippy son Andrew. When Sally announces that she and Andrew are going camping, that means that Wedge will be alone with King for an entire week. What is he going to do?



Synopses


When his mother's new marriage takes them into the household of a miniature golf course owner, ten-year-old Wedge struggles with feelings of resentment and dislike for his stepfather.
