Billy the Kid is Not Crazy, but he does get in a lot of trouble. He's been grounded for 63% of the last month. Just when he regains his parents' trust, his mind wanders off and he causes another disaster.
Billy struggles with parental acceptance, making the best of things, and finding his true talents.
“My son is a reluctant reader, but Billy the Kid is Not Crazy is the first book he ever read with enthusiasm on his own. He laughed out loud a few times, and could really relate to the main character.” –Scott Sherman
