Description
Fifteen-year-old Sam Jones's world is turned upside down when his girlfriend, Alicia, becomes pregnant, forcing him to confront a future far removed from his dreams of skateboarding and emulating his hero, Tony Hawk. Seeking guidance in the unlikeliest of places, Sam finds himself poring over Tony Hawk's autobiography, searching for wisdom and a roadmap to navigate his sudden, overwhelming responsibilities. This coming-of-age story explores the unexpected challenges of adolescence, the search for identity, and the profound impact of mentorship, even when it comes from a distant idol.
