About this book
Benito's father has been in Iraq for more than a year. When he returns, life is not the same for the family. His father yells constantly and can't even pick up a soccer ball. If that's not bad enough, at a soccer fundraiser, Dad goes nuts about camel spiders in his bowling shoes. Ben is mortified and wishes his father had never come home. Dad suffers from PTSD and Ben can't deal with seeing his father as crazy, so he runs away. It's not until he's mugged in a bus station that he realizes, as crazy as his father may be, he still loves him and he'd rather be home and helping him deal, than scared and alone in a bus station.
