This is her big chance to have a summer away from her family where no one knows how insecure she used to be. This could be the perfect summer, but will nosy, noisy, and difficult campers ruin it all? "Danziger's ability to create believable, funny dialogue and to capture the thoughts of a fourteen-year-old is highly evident....Readers will be captivated by the natural flow and breezy style."- Booklist "Sure to be extremely popular." - School Library Journal "Written with vigor and humor." - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Paula Danziger lives in New York City and Woodstock, New York.
