The Family That Wasn't is an absurd fable for all ages (from middle grade to adult). Thirteen-year-old John Boggle (whose real name is John Bazukas-O'Reilly-Geronimo-Giovanni-Li Choy-Echeverria) finds his real family so impossibly crazy that he cannot stand living with them another moment. He invents a new and perfect family so convincing that he suddenly finds himself living inside this imaginary world. But John finds that he too has changed. He stares at his image in the mirror and begins to wonder if it is all a horrible mistake. Only trouble is, now he can't remember who he really is. He only knows that he must leave this false family at once. His sole clue is the name, John Boggle. To find his true family, he embarks on a cross country quest. Along the way, he encounters other characters who have also lost touch with their families. Together they must find a way to reconstruct the connections to bring back the family that once was.
