Twelve-year-old Carl is fed up with his father's single-minded
pursuit of an off-the-grid existence. His dad may be brilliant, but
dumpster-diving for food, scouring through trash for salvageable
junk, and wearing clothes fully sourced from garage sales is
getting old. Increasingly worried by what schoolmates and a certain
girl at his new school might think of his circumstances - and
encouraged by his off-kilter best friend - Carl adopts the
principles set forth in a puppy-training pamphlet to "retrain" his
dad's mindset...a crackpot experiment that produces some very
unintentional results. This is a fierce and funny novel about
family and untangling some of the ties that bind from middle-grade
master Gary Paulsen.
