Book Overview
The friends and neighbors of Stella Street have found the perfect camping spot -- miles of forest all around, a grassy clearing, and a swift-moving stream with a lovely swimming hole. Three moms, three dads, one older neighbor, five kids, and one blissed-out dog explore, build camp fires, and skinny-dip. It's the kind of magical place where nothing bad could possibly happen. Well, except for the shady loggers who try to poach some valuable old-growth trees. And the juvenile delinquent who follows them from the city and steals their food. And a horrendous storm that washes out the road they drove in on. And the very pregnant mom's chilling announcement: "I think it's time. . . ".

This is a great book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This book is a lot of fun to read, and I would recommend it to any kid who wants something that is exciting and mysterious. It brought back some memories of the time that I went camping, and it was really great to remember it. The story has a lot of twists and turns, and it keeps you on edge throughout the whole book while still having a really great and even cute storyline. If you are thinking about buying this book, you have made a good choice to do so, and hopefully you will decide to buy it! :) Hope this helps!
