Plot
One night at a carnival, twelve year old Josh is humiliated when he finds out the girl he likes is dating an older boy and he is too young to ride a rollercoaster. In his frustration, he wishes that he could fast-forward the clock and to his shock, he finds himself inside an adult’s body!
Facing many adult situations along the way, such as meeting a lovely lady, Joshs' childish and playful sense of humour does not always go down well! Desperate to leave the grown-up world, with the help of his friend Billy, he embarks on a hilarious journey to return to his child self.
