an exciting book

The novel is suitable for the ages from 11-15/16. "how to survive Summer camp" is a teenage book, especially for girls. It's good for these ages, because the author wrote about problems which are solved at the end of the story. It's a good example of how to handle problems for teenage-girls.The story is about Stella, who can't stand the summer camp she has to attend while her mother and her new husband go on honeymoon a lot of exciting things happen, which make the book very good. One of my favourite events from that book is how Stella wants to make friends and be nice, while other girls are treating her badly and giving her names like "BALDY". I like the way she handels it all by herself and without her relatives or any other friends. I also like her ignorance when the other girls annoye her. The book is very exciting and shows a lot of feelings.

!!! How to survive summer camp !!!

Guess what? Stella's mum had just got married, Stella gets dumped at Evergreen. Shes not happy about it!!! Things get worse! She accidently loses all off her hair, she has to share a Dorm with snobby Karen and Louise who are not nice they are stuck up. Then she has to go Swimming-lessons which she totally hates with Uncle pong! - How can she possibly survive?

Great comedy!

I loved the book, "How to Survive Summer Camp". It was original, humorous, and right on the dot with feelings. I love all Jacqueline's books; right now my favourite is "Girls Out Late", which is the 3rd in the "Girls In Love" series for older readers. So, if you love a good book, read this, and all the others. Really! You wont be disappointed.
