The Amazing Adventures of John Smith, Jr. AKA Houdini by Peter Johnson
John Smith Jr., aka Houdini, has decided to write a book about his life. There are several characters: his best friends, Jorge and Lucky; his brother, Franklin, who is fighting in Iraq; Jackson, a local Vietnam vet, who has an evil dog named Da Nang; and of course, the "villian," a kid named Angel who is out to get everyone. As the story unfolds, Houdini and his friends find themselves with a new job in town, as his parents struggle with theirs. And then news from Iraq comes, and Houdini learns that his book, and the people in it, have bigger stories to tell than he ever realized.
