Description

A sharp-witted, big-hearted story follows a misfit girl and her brother as they head to summer camp, where every “adventure” comes with its own set of humiliations and surprises. As they navigate primitive living conditions, clashing personalities, and the pressure of boys-versus-girls competitions, they must rely on each other—and on their own stubborn sense of humor—to make it through. With themes of belonging, resilience, and the messy realities of growing up, the book turns everyday challenges into moments of insight and empathy. Vera Brosgol’s distinctive, character-driven style brings warmth and wit to the trials of camp life, making this a standout read for anyone who’s ever felt a little out of place.
