Description

Eleven-year-old Rubie arrives at summer camp determined to keep things under control—especially when her outgoing, fun-loving best friend Riley isn’t there to smooth the way. As new routines, unexpected friendships, and the pressure to “have the best summer ever” collide, Rubie must learn how to adapt, speak up, and find her own kind of courage. Blending humor and heart, this story explores belonging, the shifting dynamics of friendship, and what it means to grow when the plan falls apart. With Maddie Frost’s warm, accessible voice and keen emotional insight, Rubie’s journey turns everyday camp moments into a satisfying coming-of-age adventure.
