Quick Summary
A hurricane strands A.J. and his family at Andrea's house, turning a beach vacation into a forced sleepover full of sibling-style arguments and frantic back-to-school shopping. After the dust settles, their parents ship them off to the weirdest day camp imaginable, where the kids tumble into a series of goofy, fast-paced misadventures that feel like a mash-up of a classroom prank war and a summer-camp scavenger hunt. The story's punchy humor, short chapters, and big-type layout make it perfect for kids who are just starting to read chapter books or who love a laugh-out-loud, low-stakes adventure. Parents will appreciate that the only scary parts are a little storm noise and a few spooky camp legends, while the rest is pure silly fun that encourages teamwork and problem-solving. If your child enjoys the goofy school chaos of Dan Gutman's My Weird School series, they'll feel right at home with the antics in this special edition.
