Book Overview
" Dear __________, I dreaded coming to camp Pine Haven and my first week here was the worst. While my best friend was sunbathing on the beach in Hawaii, I was stuck with outdoor showers, a rickety cabin, and only one friend -- quiet, boring Melissa. Then the "Evil Twins" showed up. It turned out they're totally cool and they wanted to be my friend They're not really evil -- well, not to me, at least. They AREN'T too nice to Melissa. We started playing a few pranks and it's kind of gotten out of control .I know I should put a stop to thinks, but I don't want to lose my only friends here. I just hope that I don't do anything I regret. Love, Kelly

My daughter (almost 8) read this, and then I read this as well. She loved it, and I'm a big fan as well. The main character is compelling -- she captures that oh-my-gosh-how-can-I-be-cool-too fear that is such a part of growing up. But the main reason I like this book so much, especially for kids, is that it's not sugar-coated: the main "villain" is genuinely mean, but our heroine recognizes that she's also a really good friend. This isn't a book that offers the obvious, sitcom ending ("it was all a misunderstanding" is a common "story out", and that doesn't happen here) -- and that rings true. Good stuff.
