[Abby] is headed to Camp Famous, where famous kids escape to be themselves. . . . Blecher skillfully crafts relatable experiences and feelings within a unique story arc. Abby is a great example of a kid learning to be patient and comfortable with who she is; growing up can be tough, but being true to herself wins in the end. A sweet summer read." -- School Library Journal "Abby longs . . . for a typical overnight summer camp experience. Instead, her teacher . . . finagles her a place at Camp Famous, where celebrity kids go to escape the pressure of the public eye. . . . Abby's first-person narration, alternating with journal entries in her green fuzzy notebook, builds as the summer of her dreams unfolds, until her secret comes out, upending everything. This enjoyable story of finding self-acceptance through a summer escape is ideal for veteran campers as well as for those who daydream about the experience--and the new friends they might make there." -- Horn Book Magazine "Camp Famous expertly blends the joys of summer camp with the struggles of not fitting in. It's a fun and uplifting read!" -- Janae Marks, author of From the Desk of Zoe Washington "Like the best camp friends, this heartfelt story will stay with you for a long time." -- Stacy McAnulty, author of The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl
