Synopsis

The new swimming instructor at Camp Lone Wolf, Nessie McFarland, is anything but normal. And when she's in her scuba gear, Nessie's skinny black body, long neck, and little head remind the kids of the great legend of Lock Ness. But Nessie can't really be a monster, could she?

Goodreads review by Therearenobadbooks on December 14, 2023

This was a fun Summer Camp short adventure, focused on Nessie the Lochness Monster. Not all children are into Summer Camp but this year there is something there worth protecting. Themes of Friendship, community, and doing the right thing. Fun to hear and short. I've heard a copy provided by Libro.FM......more

Goodreads review by Nicole on November 30, 2020

I loved this series as a kid, so it was so much fun to read it with my niece. It held up well, especially how the books always leave a little bit of unconfirmed mystery at the end. There's never a moment where the kids are proven irrefutably correct, even to themselves, and I really like that.......more

Goodreads review by Roxanne on September 29, 2019

This is a chapter book about a mysterious monster lurking the lake of a campground. The story is exciting and engaging following a group of pre-teen kids through their time at camp. I would recommend this for 3rd or 4th grade readers.......more
