Thanksgiving at the Bumpers' house looks to be a grand event. With fifteen people slated to attend, Charlie Bumpers can only imagine the incredible feast. Nothing can go wrong. At least that's what Charlie thought until he finds out his bratty cousin Chip will be staying at his house and sleeping in his room. What ensues nearly destroys Charlie's Thanksgiving.
Harley adeptly handles family relationships with humor through Charlie, the middle child who never seems to catch a break. However, this time he does when his older brother quits picking on him long enough to help him out and his annoying sister sticks by him for once without trying to get him in trouble. A heartwarming look into family life with Charlie finding a new definition for family. The reader can't help but relate to the real life scenarios and characters while they learn tolerance and acceptance.

watched the book trailer.
I learned that Charlie Bumpers likes black shoes more than white shoes.
I learned the Charlie is going into the fourth grade he has an older brother Matt, a younger sister Mabel he calls squid ? WHY??? a dog Ginger and his best friend is Tommy and he dread getting Mrs Burke as his teacher for fourth grade . This should be a great read..
Thanks for the giveaway. When I visited the website I learned that Charlie admires Buck Meson the detective from Andromeda.
