The twins--Danny and Reese--have just started kindergarten, his older daughter Presley wants nothing to do with him, and his wife Deb makes enough money for the family to live on. Newly rudderless, Weldon struggles to understand his purpose on this earth. Who is it that can tell him who he is? When Weldon slides gleefully down an inflatable slide at a child's birthday party, only to come crashing into the birthday boy, he thinks he's just made a mistake that will lead only to hassle and headache. Instead, it kick-starts a quest for personal discovery that culminates in a dramatic flourishing of Weldon's deep-seated heroism"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Stay-at-home fathers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Identity (Philosophical concept) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Masculinity $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Self-realization $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novellas. $2 lcgft 941 $a 2 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210318010017.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200602014554.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=14E18EEAA49B11EA9676382F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
