Camp Rolling Hills
Camp Rolling Hills: Book 1: First Base | Stacy Davidowitz
4 posts | 3 read
A hilarious and heartfelt series about the particular magic of summer camp--a place where reinvention is possible and friends are like family--from a sparkling debut talent. Finally, it's summer! Stephanie--aka Slimey--has been counting the days until she can return to her favorite place in the entire world, Camp Rolling Hills. And this year she's especially happy to be back--she'll have eight blissful weeks away from home, where life has been decidedly rocky. New kid Bobby, on the other hand, is pretty sure he's in for the worst summer of his life. He does not understand his weirdo cabinmates, the group singing, and the unfortunate nicknames (including his: Smelly). But he does understand Slimey, and the two soon fall in crush. This summer might not be so bad after all! But then a fight sets off an epic, campwide, girls-versus-boys prank war. Bunks are raided! Boxer shorts are stolen! And it's up to Slimey and Smelly to keep the peace. "Camp Rolling Hills is funny and sweet. It brought me back to those amazing summer camp summers and my very first taste of young adulthood." --Michael Showalter, co-writer of Wet Hot American Summer "Stacy Davidowitz gets the magic of camp and the wonder of being twelve just right. Camp Rolling Hills is both heartwarming and laugh-out-loud hilarious." --Elissa Brent Weissman, author of Nerd Camp

I'm so bummed I didn't get any reading done for the past four days. We went on a short road trip - water theme park (kids' favourite), natural hot springs and the cooling hilltops, but I'm happy we had a wonderful family time and the kids had so much fun. 🏊🏼🤽🏻‍♀️🚵🏻🎢🏔🏕

This book was really cute! The Twilight references were hilarious. I appreciated that the kids had a variety of interests and issues (divorce, anxiety, moving, etc.) that were mixed in with the overall camp storyline. It was the first time I've seen a kids book deal with some of them.
