CUTE

PURCHASED FOR CHILD WHO WILL BE ATTENDING SLEEP AWAY CAMP FOR FIRST TIME. SHE FOUND IT ENTERTAINING.

A "Super Special" Switcheroo

The "Katie Kazoo" series is about an elementary age girl who received a granting of her wish to be someone else. In each book in this series she experiences (temporarily) a change into someone else, and during the period of change she usually creates a conflict that she has to work to resolve after she turns into Katie again. My daughters (similar in age to Katie) love these books and usually consume them in a single day (or a single sitting). The conflict is low-grade and typically funny or light-hearted. A Super Special is when she turns into more than one person in the book. "Camp Rules!" is about Katie turning into a raccoon at summer camp. Then she turns into another girl in a swimming race. The problems along the way include messing up the race and a depletion of snacks (raccoons!). One of our favorites in the series.
