Norman Tuttle on the Last Frontier : A Novel in Stories: When Norman Tuttle overhears his father's stinging words, he cringes. Norman knows exactly what he's good for. He's good for falling off his dad's fishing boat into icy Alaskan waters. He's good for quietly sweating on gorgeous Laura Magruder at the school dance. He's good for getting on the bad side of Leonard Kopinski, an overgrown eighth grader who shaves. He's good for messing up just about everything.

Norman gets grounded so often his life feels like a prison work-release program. As he contemplates a long and lonely adolescence on the Last Frontier, he's sure there's more to life than being the most awkward kid in Alaska. In fifteen closely linked stories that follow Norman from age thirteen to going-on-sixteen, Tom Bodett combines rugged Alaskan adventure with a warm and funny coming-of-age story of a boy who may not be as lonely as he thinks.
