Tony Miglione comes from a working class family, and he is completely happy until his father, an electrician, announces that he invented electrical cartridges and will be a partner in a company, so they’re moving to the suburbs where they will have a big house and anything and everything Tony could ever want. Tony is not thrilled with the idea of moving away from his friends, but he soon realizes that his father’s move up in the world has its advantages. He soon makes new friends, but as he gets to know them, he isn’t sure if they’re the kind of people he wants to be friends with. The rest of his family seems to appreciate what his father’s new job has offered them, but Tony realizes that his family has changed, and he’s not sure if this change is for the better. Moe than anything, Tony wants things to go back to the way they were before his father’s invention. Will Tony and his family get used to their new fortune?
Sometimes the very things that are supposed to make our lives better and easier turn out to be the things that make our lives harder. The Miglione family wanted what was best for Tony, but they are not putting much thought into what he wants, and they don’t realize how hard he has had it until it is almost too late. It is important to be considerate of others when making important decisions. It is also important to voice our opinions if something is bothering us or not going well for us. Tony learns this the hard way.
