When Life Gives You Lemons...

Tyler McAllister felt like a lemon.  How was he supposed to feel like anything else when his mother and brother were famous movie stars and he was left getting into fights, bouncing from school to school, and visiting more allergy doctors than he could count.

In Daniel Hayes' The Trouble With Lemons, Tyler is doing ok now that his family has relocated out of the city and into a more rural area.  He loves his housekeeper and his mom and brother visit as often as they can.  He even made a new friend Lymie.  Things could really turn out ok here..that is...until they find the body.  That's right, self-confessed lemon finds a dead body.  Now what?

Well of course I'm not going to tell you.  You'll have to read the book and see what happens.  But before you crime aficionados get your hopes up you do find out what happens with the body but this is not a "crime drama."  This is the story of Tyler as he tries to become more than just a lemon.  I'll admit I didn't love this book at first, but once I got into the story I just had to find out what happened.

Making lemonade...that's kids stuff.
