REALLY RUBIE
Out Now!
Hello, summer! Eleven-year-old Rubie Fox can't wait to go to sleepaway camp for the very first time. She and her best friend Riley Swisher will go away for an entire month TOGETHER, and they'll even be able to spy on Riley's crush Owen.
But when Riley drops a bomb—she can't go to camp because she broke her ankle—Rubie has to go by herself. Which sort of makes her feel RAGE…how can she go to camp without Riley?!
But Rubie just might find another BFF, break out of her shell, and even meet a boy…all without Riley. Camp might be more eventful than Rubie ever thought it could be—will she sink or will she swim?
A Note from Rubie FOX
Rubie Fox here. No Middle name. And please don't spell it R-u-b-y. This is my diary from one wild adventure at summer camp. It's full of secrets, friend drama, rule breaking, AND my first crush. Oh, did I mention a love triangle too? Yikes!
My best friend Riley and I were supposed to go to Camp Pineview in Vermont together for an entire month. Then she tried on her mom's high heels and broke her ankle. Ugh!
Let's just say I was totally not prepared for everything that happened. Sneaking out to the boys camp across the lake would be the LAST thing I thought I would do.
Don't tell my mom I said that.
All I know is I'm definitely not the same girl I was before the summer. So, until we meet again...
