Description:

Newell’s perfectly comfortable life is turned upside down when Mrs. Hendricks announces the upcoming school dance (Fart.) and he discovers his dad is dating his math teacher (Double Fart!), forcing Newell to embrace change and grow.

At first, Newell is excited when Mrs. Hendricks announces the school dance! The last dance they had was awesome, where Newell invented his signature move: The Shake and Slide. But Newell's world starts to shake up when his friends start to couple up to go to the dance. Not only will that change the vibe from last year's dance, but it could ultimately break up the gang. (double fart.) Things go from bad to worse when Skyler jinxes Newell: he stubs his toe, breaks his arm, and even misses Mr. Todd slip across the cafeteria on a banana peel!

And if that weren’t enough, Newell’s dad has started dating again... and specifically starts dating Newell's math teacher, Miss Tanner!


Life is turning upside down for Newell so he is forced to do the thing he does best: embark on a misadventure of epic proportions as he tries to stop the dance, keep his friend group together, and keep his dad from dating someone new. Will Newell be successful in his mission to keep things from changing? Or does Newell learn to go with the flow and embrace the dance of life?
