520    The Sleators are not your average family . . . When author
       William “Billy” Sleator was growing up, life was a never-
       ending adventure. The best presents his parents ever gave 
       him and his sister, Vicky, were 2 younger brothers, Danny 
       and Tycho. The 4 siblings delighted in playing pranks on 
       one another and on their unsuspecting friends and 
       neighbors. The children’s mother and father also liked to 
       joke around. Their mom, who was a pediatrician, came up 
       with a witty name for the kids’ drama club: the Parkview 
       Traumatic Club. Their dad, who was a physiologist, would 
       sometimes blindfold Billy, along with his sister and 
       brothers, and take them for a ride—dropping them off in an
       unfamiliar place and telling them to find their way back 
       with only a single dime to make a phone call. Whether he’s
       regaling us with tall tales about hypnotism and séances, 
       riffing on his family’s deepest secrets, or waxing 
       philosophical about being liked for who you are and not 
       who you hang out with, Sleator offers an illuminating 
       window into his unique and offbeat family, in which life 
       was lived to the fullest.
