Stranger in Dadland
Here is the engaging, funny story of a boy caught in the juggling act of life with divorced parents. Every summer John flies to Los Angeles for his annual visit with Dad. But one week a year sure isn't a lot of time for father/son bonding, particularly when your father is a workaholic who always schedules more meetings with clients than outings with his one-and-only son. Not to mention the embarrassing fact that Dad always has a new girlfriend hanging around.
In the past it's been near impossible to grab some quality time with his father, but this summer John refuses to give up without a fight. He's sick of feeling like a stranger in "Dadland."
