The Convertible Couch
Beebie was finally going to make his family proud... then everything fell apart.
Benjamin "Beebie" Bateman has always felt like the odd one out. Unlike his athletic brothers and sports-mad father, Beebie wears glasses, is small for his age, and usually stays on the sidelines. But all that changes when he's chosen as rover for the school football team--a chance to finally earn his father's pride.
Then he comes home to devastating news: his dad has left the family.
Reeling with confusion and heartache, Beebie struggles to make sense of a life turned upside down. His weekend visit to his father's new home--complete with a new partner, her kids, and the dreaded convertible couch--only deepens his sense of betrayal. But amid the chaos, Beebie begins to find strength in unexpected friendships... and a way to move forward.
The Convertible Couch is a deeply moving middle-grade novel about divorce, loss, and learning to stand strong when everything around you changes. A compelling and compassionate read for ages 10 and up.
