Editorial Reviews

Claudia was beginning to think that nothing would go right that last summer at camp; the school bully was there, the self-centered Anna was in her cabin, and already she’d failed the swimming test twice. Without it, she couldn’t return as a camp counselor the following year! As Claudia meets and overcomes the hurdles of everyday teen life, she provides a great role model for readers who will identify with the issues she meets. Another Stone Arch book for reluctant readers, this should appeal to young teens. Recommended.
