The beloved author of Ms. Bixby's Last Day and Posted returns with a humorous and heartwarming story of family, friendship, and miniature golf.
For as long as he can remember, Malcolm has never felt like he was good enough. Not for his parents, who have always seemed at odds with each other, with Malcolm caught in between. And especially not for his dad, whose competitive drive and love for sports Malcolm has never shared.
That is, until Malcolm discovers miniature golf, the one sport he actually enjoys. Maybe it's the way in which every hole is a puzzle to be solved. Or the whimsy of the windmills and waterfalls that decorate the course. Or maybe it's the slushies at the snack bar. But whatever the reason, something about mini golf just clicks for Malcolm. And best of all, it's a sport his dad can't possibly obsess over.
Or so Malcolm thinks.
Soon he is signed up for lessons and entered in tournaments. And yet, even as he becomes a better golfer and finds unexpected friends at the local course, be wonders if he might not always be a disappointment. But as the final match of the year draws closer, the tension between Malcolm's parents reaches a breaking point, and it's up to him to put the puzzle of his family back together again.
With his parents on the verge of separating, Malcolm is playing for more than just a trophy.
- A Heartfelt Father-Son Story: Malcolm just wants to find one thing he can share with his sports-obsessed dad, but can he ever be good enough to win his approval?
- Finding Your Thing: From windmills to slushies, Malcolm falls in love with miniature golfthe one sport he might actually be good at, until the pressure gets to be too much.
- Parents on the Brink: Caught in the middle of his parents' quiet war, Malcolm feels like it's his job to fix their breaking family.
- Relatable Middle Grade Humor: Full of witty observations and laugh-out-loud moments that perfectly capture the feeling of being a kid in a world that's a little too serious.
