Brenda at Log Cabin Library was kind enough to review Surviving Summer Camp and I think it's safe to say that she loved it.
Here's an exerpt from Brenda's review:
"One of my favorite survival stories has always been Hatchet and anything by Terry Lynn Johnson. Along with Surviving Summer Camp, they're all action packed where characters are plunged into the wild and have these edge of your seat tense moments that keeps you flying through the pages. I love how Eddy began as a reluctant camper and how he unexpectedly steps into a leader role. How the brother's relationship transformed each step that they took in the woods, growing them closer. Samantha was a very cool counselor, calm and understanding. I really enjoyed her natural familiarity with hiking in the woods and use of herbs to deter mosquito bites. There are real concrete examples for surviving a hike following being stranded or injured. Kids will enjoy the action and humor of Eddy's interactions with his brothers. They'll also enjoy seeing that summer camp isn't all smores and ghost stories but how being prepared, staying calm and understanding some of these essential survival skills can help you to manage a stressful situation. Overall, I really enjoyed the story for the moments of typical sibling fighting and especially when their mom confused up their names when she got angry. Not to be missed."
