Henry Holt and Co. (BYR) claimed I start up the street toward my grandfather´s house. Just how weird is it that I, Brad Stanislawski, am walking toward a funeral home of my own free will?Where do you fit in when you´re oversized, underappreciated, and faced with a name like Stanislawski?Brad Stanislawski is looking forward to summer vacation, if only to get away from the classmates who make fun of his size (it´s not his fault he´s so tall) and his last name (Stan-is-lousy being their moniker of choice). So when Brad´s mother announces that she´s taking a summer vacation by herself and sending Brad across the country to stay with his estranged grandfather-who happens to be an undertaker-Brad thinks life couldn´t possibly get any worse. Still, as Brad ought to know, first impressions can be deceiving, and a name can hold a lot more than embarrassment.What exactly does it mean to be Brad Stanislawski? In this thoughtful, funny first novel, Brad (with a little help from his grandfather) is about to find out for himself.
