It s July, and Nicholas Borelli II s parents are scheduled to spend two weeks on a cruise. Nicholas will spend those two weeks, as he does every summer, at Camp Wannameka. The night before he s to leave, however, there s a phone call: thanks to an explosion in the septic system, camp is canceled. The only place for Nicholas to go instead is to his grandmother s house in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, New York. Nicholas s father grew up in Brooklyn, but you d hardly know it. An Italian dinner at Nicholas s house in the suburbs is whole wheat pasta, organic tomato sauce, and, if he s lucky, a tofu meatball. And Brooklyn? Well, Brooklyn is the place his father left and never talks about. Nicholas has never been there, and he doesn t want to go now. But when Nicholas tastes his grandma Tutti s meatballs for the first time, gets a nickname from his uncle Frankie, and makes a friend in the neighborhood, his feelings about Brooklyn and family begin to change.
