Werewolves Don't Go to Summer Camp

The book that I have read is Werewolves Don't Go to Summer Camp . I have chosen this book because it is very mysterious and funny . The book is about four children, who are going to a different summer camp. I won't give the whole story away, but the only thing I can say is that I recommend it to kids in the 7th grade and higher.

I'm glad werewolves go to my school!

Werewolves Don't Go To Sumer Camp is a great book that takes us on an adventure to summer camp. Howie, Eddie, Melody, and Lize run into some wolf problems as they arrive at camp Lone Wolf. On the first day of camp they met Mr. Jenkin, the camp director. The kids think he is a werewolf because he's hairy and he likes raw hamburgers. They make it through the long week and find out the scary truth.I recommend this book because I like funny and scary books. I like picturing scary things.

HOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWL!!

In this, the second in the Bailey School Kids series, we are reintroduced to the gaggle of third graders who we first met in "Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots." In that book, our heroes became convinced that their new teacher from Transylvania was a vampire. Now, they're off to summer camp to meet a very strange--and especially hairy!--camp counselor.An odd bird he is indeed. First off, he's THE hairiest person the gang has ever seen, but stranger than that is his taste for practically raw, cold hamburger, his habit of never wearing shoes and staying away from campfires. When he tells the story of how a young boy disappeared from the camp, hints at the possibility of werewolves around the camp, and when a mysterious, shaggy figure is seen running off into the night near the night of the full moon, the gang gets scared. As they say, something weird is definitely going on."Werewolves Don't..." is scarier than the first book in this series. Strange things happen at night, and when the gang strews wolfsbane and mistletoe around the counselor's cabin (two potent treatments for werewolves), he takes the day off sick, then shows up for coffee shaven, well dressed and with shoes: a totally different person! That night (the night of the full moon) the campers go for a midnight hike and things REALLY start getting hairy!This book, like the others in the series, is both entertaining and engaging. In each book, it's never stated outright, in fact, that the main characters are really supernatural: a quick reader could argue that they're not and have evidence from the text to back up their opinion. The pace is fast, the action is creepy, so it's a book that is likely to hold just about any young person's interest, including reluctant readers. In fact, ESPECIALLY reluctant readers. Definitely a series worth checking out!
