My Life as a Bigfoot Breath Mint: 12

This book, like any other Wally McDoogle book, is hilarious! Wally visits his uncle in California, to find him a rich, famous stunt actor who has his own theme park!!! The trouble starts when Wally gets his shoelace stuck in the baggage claim belt, then the endless mishaps continue. Wally begins to admire his uncle more than his father and begins to think of his dad as a "plain, ordinary, loser". The story ends when Wally discovers that, although cool, his uncle does not care about him enough to turn his jetski around to rescue him when he is drowning. Wally's dad, however, comes through and ends up helping Wally stay above water long enough for help to come. It teaches that true heros are the ones that love you enough to risk their lives for you.
