Synopsis

What Would Joey Do? Called "frenetically fun, terrifically perceptive, and totally believable" ("School Library Journal" starred review), this final volume of the Joey Pigza trilogy is as hilarious and emotionally honest as its award-winning predecessors.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Joey's dad just roared into town on a motorcycle, his mom is chasing her ex-husband away with a broomstick, and his grandma's camped out on the couch behind a plastic shower curtain. What's more, Joey's chihuahua has been dognapped, and his mom insists that he be homeschooled with a mean blind girl and her super-religious mother. Welcome to Joey's world.

With his new self-assumed role as "Mr. Helpful," Joey's on a mission to make everything and everyone better. Can Joey accomplish all this or will his wild, wired behavior spin him out of control all over again?

Revue de presse :

"A funny, tender and soul-searching presentation of the relationship between Joey and his dying grandmother. This third Joey story is upbeat, warm-hearted and delightful" (Lesley Agnew The Bookseller)

"Joey . . . is an impossible, contradictory, glorious creation" (Boston Sunday Globe)
