Book Overview
Cue the pretend drum-roll: Keats's parents have a big surprise. No, they're not having a new baby. It's -- wait for it, wait for it -- a family road trip Okay, so this is not exactly the birthday present Keats had in mind (no iPod? ), but when Dad parks a rented RV in the Dalinger's driveway, Keats piles in with the rest of his family -- and the manny, of course -- bound for the open road. From the big skies of farm country to the bright lights of Las Vegas, this, in typical manny fabulousness, is an all-American adventure filled with more Glamour -dos than Glamour -don'ts. But a stopover at the manny's childhood home is making the manny feel not so fabulous. Why can't his parents ever accept him for who he is? And Keats, at first, sees their point. Why does the manny always have to be so interesting? Hit the road for more manny shenanigans, where it's all about Elton John, Diet Coke, and being brave enough to be yourself.

A must read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
We read this book outloud to our 9 year olds and the whole family loved it. We still talk and laugh about it months later. My husband would sneek the book off the nightstand and read ahead because he wanted to know what would happen next. We are so eager for this author to write more about this family!
great book for comady lovers
