Plot Summary of Losing Joe's Place
"Joe Cardone pounds on his brother Jason's door, demanding to know why he was kicked out of his apartment after lending it to Jason and his friends over the summer. As he hides in his room, Jason flashes back to the events of the last three months, recalling the misadventures his friends had trying to satisfy Joe's rent-hungry landlord. As the boys struggle through a variety of low-paying jobs, they receive unexpected help from a friendly giant named Rootbeer who earns money by participating in outrageous physical contests. But when Jason discovers the recipe for an irresistible chocolate shake, he opens a popular restaurant that could solve all his money problems. "
