with crushes, pranks, and s'mores-launching with two books!
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.
There's only one thing Melman loves more than soccer: her summers at Camp Rolling Hills. So she's pumped to
be back—until she realizes her bunkmates have gone totally boy-crazy over the school year and plastered their
cabin in pink. Pink posters, pink t-shirts...it seems that the only not-pink thing in the cabin is Melman herself.
That is, until she's given a dare in front of the entire camp: wear a pink princess dress. For Three. Whole. Days.
Steinberg's summer gets off to a rough start, too, when his robot (usually his area of expertise) blows up during
a camp-wide robotics contest. Steinberg might feel like a loser at home, but camp's supposed to be his place
to shine.
Steinberg without robots? Melman in pink? This whole summer feels turned upside down! To set things right,
Steinberg and Melman team up and hatch a fail-proof plan. The plan's secret ingredient? Hamburgers.

'Yeah... a snogging fest.'
'Sacré bleu!'
Jas looked like she was thinking which is a) unusual and b) scary.

'Oo-er...'
'D-accord. Anyway, I turned round and he sort of leaped out of the way like two short leaping things.'
'Was he dancing?'
'No... I think he was frightened of being knocked out by my nunga-nungas...'
Then we both laughed like loons on loon tablets (i.e. A LOT).
