I've got everything and he's got nothing. I'm a three-year, three-sport letterman and Shawn can't even stand up! Like I said, sick, huh? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's hard to be a brother to someone who doesn't even know you're there. How can you talk to him when he can't understand a thing you say? How can you listen to him when he can't speak a word? How can you love him when he's so messed up, he can't love you back? And how can you have a life of your own when your father bailed on the family, leaving you to be the \"man of the house\"? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFueled by rage at what has happened to his family, Paul is ready to explode. And he is haunted by something even worse--something he can never tell anyone. It is something he will have to face if he is to have any hope of a future at all. While Cruise Control is a companion to Terry Trueman's Printz Honor book, Stuck in Neutral, it is the completely independent story of a family's \"other\" son--the one who is healthy, gifted, normal. It is a courageously hopeful story told with power, compassion, and humor. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45408360366231,"sku":"9780064473774","price":870.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780064473774.webp?v=1768582623","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/cruise-control-9780064473774","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
