Synopsis
Joey, who is still taking medication to keep him from getting too wired, goes to spend the summer with the hard-drinking father he has never known and tries to help the baseball team he coaches win the championship., This sequel to JOEY PIGZA SWALLOWED THE KEY begins with a new and improved Joey. Once an extremely hyperactive child, lovable, good-hearted Joey has new medication and can exercise more self-control. He feels so good that he convinces his mother that he's ready to spend the summer with his estranged father, Carter. His father is also hyperactive--and a recovering alcoholic--and he wants Joey to forget his medication and kick his hyperactivity using nothing but will power. Joey must decide which he'd rather do: stand up to his father and stick with his meds, or revert to the problem child he used to be. Named a year 2000 Notable Books by the New York Times and one of the Best Children's Books 2000 by Publishers Weekly. A 2001 Newbery Honor Book.
