Book Description
Joey’s dad is back and he’s handing out hundred dollar bills.
He’s also changed his name from Carter Pigza to Charles Heinz.
Joey’s mom thinks it’s perfectly normal because she used to be Fran and now she’s Maria.
Now Charles and Maria are calling Joey a new name, too.
Freddy.
And it turns out they were never divorced. They’re even renewing their vows.
And the whole family is going to run a diner together.
Should Joey’s parents really be the ones making all the decisions around here?
School Library Journal *Starred Review*
Irrepressible Joey must draw upon all of his emotional reserves to face his latest challenge. His good-for-nothing dad shows up, having won the lottery and acquired a new identity. Carter Pigza is now Charles Heinz; he's won back Joey's mother, Fran (renamed Maria); and Joey is expected to forgive him his past sins and reinvent himself as Freddy Heinz. Dad has big plans for the family. He's bought a run-down diner and will use his son to drum up business by standing by the roadside in a bee costume. Mom is on a spending spree and pressures Joey to forgive his father and do as he says. But Joey senses how wrong this is, and his struggle is palpable. By the time he concedes, his father has given up on the diner idea and has spent all of his money on losing lottery tickets. As usual, when the chips are down, Carter takes off, just as Fran is about to have a baby. Gantos tells the tale with unfailing humor, delicious wordplay, and many hilarious scenes, but this is the darkest Joey book to date. Carter's unreliability is a given, but Fran Pigza's willingness to buy into the surreal scene is unsettling and underscores the fact that Joey is really on his own. Nevertheless, readers will cheer as his indomitable spirit prevails; he neither rescinds nor regrets his forgiveness, and he is thrilled to have a baby brother. The appearance of Junior Pigza promises a new purpose in Joey's life, the possibility of a future ally in his crazy world, and, perhaps, adventures to come.
Booklist *Starred Review*
With the return of his good-for-nothing dad, Joey Pigza embarks on a new batch of adventures in this fourth title in the popular Pigza series. Joey’s dad, whose new business venture is a bee-themed diner, renames everyone in the family (their surname is now Heinz), including the dogs. Joey (now called Freddy) struggles with his dad’s return and wonders if he can forgive him for the past. As creator of the hyperactive Joey character, Gantos brings empathy and understanding to his reading, fleshing out Joey rather than making him seem like a caricature. Joey’s antics could easily lend themselves to an overly dramatic portrayal - after all, he jumps off a roof, gets into paintball wars with his dad, and dodges a truant officer - but Gantos tells the story more subtly, in a manner that illuminates and respects Joey’s viewpoint. These episodes don’t spring forth from left field; they make sense in Joey’s mind. Similarly, Joey’s internal struggles, such as trying to forgive his father, understanding the importance of taking his medication, or accepting his mother’s pregnancy and wondering what kind of brother he will be, seem all the more poignant through Gantos’ compassionate and sometimes humorous reading. Pigza fans will love this outstanding audio.
