Description
Gabe’s happily headed back to Nerd Camp—but can he handle a cool-kid invasion?
For Gabe, the equation for summer bliss equals six glorious weeks of rigorous learning immersion at the Summer Center for Gifted Enrichment—aka, Nerd Camp. Last year was amazing, and this summer will be even better.
At least, that’s what Gabe thinks…until a new variable is introduced. Zack, Gabe’s cool stepbrother, was supposed to attend a camp nearby, but in the aftermath of a recent wildfire, Zack’s camp and nerd camp will be sharing territory. As these two very different worlds collide, can both camps—and both stepbrothers—survive the summer?
Reviews
"This worthy sequel picks up almost a year after Nerd Camp (2011) left off.... Weissman’s dialogue is particularly entertaining in the back-and-forth between Gabe and his sweet and brainy bunkmates."
"For kids heading off to camp, Elissa Brent Weissman's laugh-out-loud tale of hijinks and sibling rivalry, Nerd Camp 2.0, earns its place in the duffle bag."
