Do you know who Elvis is? What if your dad became an Elvis impersonator? Would you be embarrassed? That’s exactly what happened to Josh, and this is his story.
Josh’s parents are divorced. He usually lives with his mother, but he has to move to Chicago and live with his dad for a couple months. When he arrives, he discovers that his dad has lost his job at the shoe store and has become an Elvis impersonator. Josh does not know how to deal with his dad’s craziness. When the school Josh attends hires his dad to perform at a concert, Josh has to resort to extreme measures. It’s difficult being the new kid at school. He sure doesn’t need the other students finding out his dad dresses up in a white sequined jumpsuit and sways his hips as he croons old songs.
