SynopsisWhen Jay's dad--wanting to make a real statement with his next project--decides to build a super-sized barbecue patio, it will require help from nine-year-old Jay, his neighbors, and his border collie to get the job done., The Tonight Show'sJay Leno draws on a true story from his childhood to make a generation of young readers laugh out loud. Little Jay's mom is maniacally thrifty, his dad is extravagant, and little Jay always seems to be caught in the middle. So when Jay's dad decides that his next big "project" is going to be an ENORMOUS barbecue patio, the only way it's going to happen is if Jay, their neighbors, and Bruce, the laziest dog in America, help him out. When the party to launch the patio arrives, there's more food than anyone could eat, and at the center is a HUGE roast beef that Jay would do anything to get a taste of. No one will notice if he sneaks a bite, will they? That is, until Jay's secret plan backfires! What is Jay's secret weapon to sample a bit of the roast beef? Will he keep his dad from finding out? And finally, what could make a roast beef fly?
