Tim Weber and Cheryl Banks had what they thought was a "casual" relationship -- until she got pregnant and wanted to put the baby up for adoption.
It sounded like the best thing for everyone. After all, Tim was about to start college -- Columbia University in New York City. He was beginning a whole new life. But he just couldn't forget the fact that it was his baby too. He decided he wanted to keep the baby, and raise it himself.
But Tim didn't realize how hard it was going to be, moving to Manhattan, starting college, and taking care of his son. What would happen to his hopeful dreams of the future?
With wit, humor, and honesty, Norma Klein creates a deeply moving portrait of a young man precariously balanced between the responsibilities of single fatherhood and the freedom of college life.
"Norma Klein scrutinizes the unexamined assumptions of traditional family arrangements and explores new possibilities with sensitivity and savvy."
Genre: Young Adult Fiction
