The diary of a frog-loving girl's first summer camp experience, from the rocky beginnings to the final, fun-filled days
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Grade 3-5This visual and verbal delight brings to life the emotional ups and downs of three weeks at sleep-away camp. Dilly, who was convinced she would love camp, finds that its not exactly as shed envisioned. Eventually, her interest in frogs helps her to overcome the rough times and leads to new friends and the creation of a frog club. Enticing facts about these animals are interspersed with the girls observations about the people around her and each days events. Dillys journal is a dynamic, eye-popping extravaganza that gives readers insight into her energetic personality. The handwritten text uses colored markers and inventive lettering to highlight a word, phrase, or important information, and is supplemented with cartoon drawings and an occasional photograph. The narrative truly sounds as if a nine-year-old had written it. HELLO? Didnt I write a letter saying that I hate CHEESE? Cant you people READ? While kids about to attend summer camp might be made nervous by reading Dillys diary, they will ultimately be swept away by the childs pervasive sense of enjoyment and adventure. For experienced campers, this offering will bring back their own best and worst memories.Martha Topol, Traverse Area District Library, Traverse City, MI
