From School Library Journal:
Grade 6-10 Breaking Camp is a story about the misuse of power in the hands of teenagers. Fifteen-year-old Ted Jenner is looking forward to his first summer at riding camp in Pennsylvania. When he meets Lee, a returning camper, he realizes that camp may not be exactly what the director made it out to befocusing on excellence, discipline, Boy Scout traditions and fair play. Instead, as Ted puts it, "the wrong thing seems to have become the important thing." Jack Dunn, a fellow camper with a foul mouth, uses cruelty, mistrust and inappropriate traditions to dominate both campers and counselors. Ted refuses to accept this situation and spends his summer fighting back, finally winning with the help of new-found friends. The story is compelling in the action-packed narrative, but the characters are the usual stereotypes: Ted, tall, popular, guaranteed to succeed; Lee, bullied by everyone and totally inadequate, weak adults. This is just another young adult novelin no way outstanding. Constance Allen, Tabor Academy, Marion, Mass.

Book Description Tapa blanda. Condition: bien. Idioma: inglés. Páginas: 169. Sello en la última página. Forrado en plástico. A Ted le habían advertido en el tren a Camp Cherokee que no era un club de campo. Eso estaba bien, le vendría bien un verano de disciplina y ponerse en forma. Además, no podría ser tan difícil. El campamento es genial al principio. Todos tienen su propio caballo para montar, y Ted incluso se une a Jack, el tipo más carismático y poderoso de Camp Cherokee. Pero cuando comienzan las novatadas, Ted ve un lado aterrador de Jack. Sus bromas de iniciación son mucho más violentas y crueles de lo que deberían ser. Peor aún, nadie parece protestar, ni siquiera los consejeros. Entonces, cuando Ted decide que intentará detener la pesadilla, se convierte en la próxima víctima de Jack. Y cuando Jack juega, no hay reglas. Estado de la cubierta: Bien con señales de uso. Tamaño 10x17.Tenemos a su disposición fotografías de nuestros libros.
