Emerson Thorsen, 13, lives with his parents in their eco-home in the wilds of Nova Scotia. He’s just completed writing and illustrating his first book, all 1000 pages of it. Meanwhile, the home-schooled youth can barely add 2 + 2, so his mother enrolls him in the local junior high. There, Emerson’s 42-year-old English teacher, Don Grant, has settled into a life of perpetual adolescence, paying regular visits to a park restroom for who knows what. In the classroom, Emerson stirs things up. Surprisingly, Don sees a bit of himself reflected in Emerson. Emerson, initially scornful of his teacher, soon develops his first crush on Don. The precociously confident boy, raised in a household of casual nudity and openness, throws himself into this awakening of his heart with dangerous abandon. This is going to be a Whole New Thing. For everyone. Keywords:Teacher,school,Teacher Student Relationship
