Summary
Lately, young Joshua A. Beal (Cross) has been having a hard time just waking up in the morning. Up until now, his life has been all about Batman action figures, Ninja turtle cartoons and Captain Crunch cereal. But not any more. It's the first day of fifth grade, and he's finally decided it's time to wake up and discover life. It's been several months since his beloved grandfather (Loggia) passed away, and while everyone else seems certain his Grandpa is in good hands, Joshua just isn't sure. No one around him, including his parents (Leary, Delany) and his school teacher (O'Donnell), can give him a satisfactory answer.
