As a child, I never went to camp but always wanted to. As an adult, I read the advertisements for sleepaway camps and marvel at the round of activities that are offered. As a Jew in the South, I keep at the top of my list the Jewish camps nearby.

But Not a Happy Camper hits home with a blast of humor, a touch of naiveté, and a whole book full of lessons learned in life and love. This memoir is a wonderfully crafted book for anyone who has been to camp, wants to go to camp, or just wants to stay home and read about it.

Mindy Schneider introduces us to numerous characters, most of whom we’ve met and known ourselves, albeit by different names. This is the summer that she grew up--her first unstructured camp, her first kiss, her first time "almost" fitting in. This book may be entitled Not a Happy Camper, but I was definitely a Happy Reader!
