That's it. I am swearing off yard sales forever! My wife and I just picked up a ridiculous number of books for a few dollars. That is actually pretty good, but the bad news (for me) is we live in a third floor walk-up apartment and I had to carry all of them up those awful three flights of stairs. No more I say... No more!

Oh yes, that will work... If you feel any pity for me at all, please catch this book.

From the back cover:

"He was wired. No doubt about it... Now I know what Mom meant when she said he was like me, only bigger."

Joey Pigza really want his six-week visit with his dad to count, to show him he's not wired as he used to be, to show his dad how much he loves him. But Carter Pigza's not an easy guy to love. He's eager to make it up to Joey for past wrongs and to show him how to be a winner, to take control of his life. With his coaching, Joey's even learned how to pitch a baseball, and he's good at it. The trouble is, Joey's dad thinks taking control means giving up the things that keep Joey safe. And if he wants to please his dad, he's going to have to play by his rules, even when the rules don't make sense.
