Publisher's Synopsis
Augustus T. Poopernickle is a nine-year-old boy struggling with his ever-present clumsiness. He tries so hard to pay better attention and really wants to end the chaos that seems to happen around him, but it seems like it's always out of his control. Whether it's tripping over his own shoelaces and falling in a mud puddle or ripping his pants wide open while sliding down a rough terrain, there's always something that causes him a bit of embarrassment! After an unfortunate misunderstanding at school with the principal, Augustus gets kicked out for three whole days. Instead of a terrible punishment, his parents decide to reward him after hearing his side of the story. Will he come back home in one-piece after going on an exciting camping trip with his dad or will a boating accident change his life forever?
