Synopsis

An eerie, twisty ghost story about twelve-year-old Parker, who only wants a summer of fun and new friendship at sleepaway camp but ends up finding a nightmare instead!

Don't forget your flashlight. . . .

Parker Nelson can’t wait for summer camp. She’ll have fun and make amazing memories, far away from the bullies who made seventh grade unbearable.

But then something terrible happens: The mean girl who made life a living nightmare is in Parker’s cabin. Soon all the other girls turn on Parker, too—no one wants to be her friend. Except Jenny.

Jenny’s the only one who is willing to listen. The only one who understands. The only one who feels the same way Parker does: that there's a deep, dark secret to making friends and she’s the only one who doesn't know it.

But there’s something else Parker doesn’t know. Something bad happened at the camp a long time ago, and it just won’t stay buried. . . .

What a delightful book. Delilah Dawson really has a way of making her characters not only sympathetic, but relatable. Its a very difficult thing for an author to make the audience sympathize so much. And she does it masterfully here. The story of this book is about a girl named Parker who gets bullie......more

Goodreads review by Josh on March 02, 2023

A chilling ghost story, but more than that, a raw and honest look at bullying, at the pain and challenges of being the odd one out, an empathetic tale for everyone struggling to belong and be understood without losing sight of themselves.......more

Goodreads review by Cassidy on June 20, 2023

I’ve wanted to read this book from the moment I saw its cover while browsing the kids’ chapter books at work. I mean, that dripping burnt marshmallow skull is so badass, am I right? Yet again, my tendency to judge a book by its cover has PAID OFF. I really loved Camp Scare! It’s a middle grade horror......more
