 A delightful middle grade graphic novel set at a summer camp about theater, managing expectations, and friendship. There's a lot here that middle school readers will definitely relate to, from figuring out how to express your feelings for a crush to how your friendships might change moving into high school. The art worked well for the subject matter, and I think a lot of kids will like the focus on theater. If you enjoy queer middle grade graphic novels, definitely check this one out!
