Max's summer camp misery turns intriguing with a mysterious diary.
Max's summer camp is a disaster—no games, no chips, and no friends. But when he stumbles upon a mysterious diary, his two weeks might not be so miserable after all. With new roomies and a pretty girl named Clara, Max's journal entries capture the unexpected twists of camp life. Will this adventure lead to newfound independence or just more bug bites? Dive into Max's world of middle-school humor and mystery as he navigates the ups and downs of camp life.
Max is off to summer camp and ready to fill his journal with hilarious middle-school wisdom in this third installment of the My Life in Smiley series that is illustrated with the internationally recognized emoticons of the SmileyWorld brand. Age Level: 8-12 Grade Level: 3rd and up Max is in trouble, SOS trouble, he’s a prisoner in the middle of nowhere. His journal is the conclusive evidence that the next two weeks at summer camp are going to be absolutely miserable . . . or not! His parents signed him up to give him some “independence,” but all it’s given him so far is bug bites! It’s super hot, he’s got no video games, no salt and vinegar chips, and–worst of all–no friends. He even has to pretend to have fun and participate in activities! But despite all that, his roomies are cool, this girl Clara is kinda pretty, and he found a mysterious diary. . . .
