#MMBBR #BooknerdBoy #Review Rosco the Rascal Goes to Camp by Shana Gorian @AuthorShana




Ten-year-old James and his seven-year-old sister, Mandy are off to summer camp with their loyal German shepherd, Rosco. While Mandy struggles with homesickness, James’s week is threatened by a prank-playing bunkmate’s antics. But, during an unexpected thunderstorm in a game of capture-the-flag, the prankster finds himself lost, alone and injured deep inside the forest. Rosco must play the hero and save the boy, but not before he teaches him a hard-earned lesson about friendship. Join Rosco and the gang in their third adventure, this time, out in the woods! *136 pages *17 black and white illustrations throughout *Recommended for ages 8-10
