Now it’s up to a crew of goofy, terrified kids, a glowing-eyebrowed counselor, and a lot of marshmallows to stop an ancient canoe uprising before the entire camp is eaten—one bunkmate at a time....

I felt so alive, and I took a big, satisfied inhalation of fresh country air to appreciate where I was. The overpowering ...
