(3) 4-6 Ethan just wants to fit in during his first summer at sleepaway camp. He successfully flies under the radar--until he befriends the new kid, Zachary, whose bad reputation precedes him and whose aloof manner wins him few other friends. The low-key story provides thought-provoking commentary on friendship, rumors, and ambition set against a vivid summer camp backdrop.
