This story is about a 12 year old named Paul who is dealing with moving to Tangerine, Florida. He is given with enormous glasses after an accident having to do with an eclipse. He is a good soccer player, but belittled by his father and older brother Erik, who is a football star. Paul has always feared his brother, though he does not understand how it began. Throughout this novel, Paul deals with living in a new county, new schools, and ultimately learns secrets about his family.
