Dan Versus Nature by Don Calame

From screenwriter Don Calame comes another outrageously funny and raunchy tale of teen boys whose plans go awry this time, on a survivalist camping trip.
Shy and scrawny Dan Weekes spends his time creating graphic novels inspired by his dream girl and looking out for his mom as she dates every man in the state of California. Then his mom drops a bomb: she and her latest beau, Hank, are engaged, and she s sending her two favorite men on a survivalist camping trip to bond. Determined to trick Hank into showing his true flawed colors on the trip, Dan and his nerdy germaphobe best friend, Charlie, prepare a series of increasingly gross and embarrassing pranks. But the boys hadn t counted on a hot girl joining their trip or on getting separated from their wilderness guide not to mention the humiliating injuries Dan suffers in the course of terrorizing his stepdad-to-be. With a man-hungry bear on their trail, no supplies, and a lot of unpleasant itching going on, can Dan see his plan through now that his very survival depends on Hank?
Calame, Don: - Don Calame is the author of the young adult novels Swim the Fly, Beat the Band, and Dan Versus Nature. He is also an accomplished screenwriter who has worked with Marvel Studios, the Disney Channel, Lionsgate, Universal Studios, and Paramount Pictures. About Call the Shots, he says, After having written a story from both Matt's and Coop's perspectives, there was no way I could leave poor, gullible, clueless Sean out of the fun. The challenge was, of course, coming up with a story that was uniquely his. I wracked my brain for months until the low-budget movie idea came to me. When I was in college, I worked on one of my professor's independent films, and it was such a nightmare experience--filled with so many pitfalls and problems--that I knew it was the perfect setting to thrust an unsuspecting Sean into. I'm really excited about this book and I think it's the perfect cap to the series. Don Calame was born in New York and now lives in Ontario with his wife and their dog, Scooter.
