About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling to maintain long-distance friendships or feeling the sting of digital FOMO (fear of missing out). It is a perfect choice for the transition from summer back to the school year, especially if your child has just returned from a sleepaway camp and feels a sense of withdrawal from their 'summer self.' Part of the Summer Share series, this story follows four girls who bonded at Camp Lakeview as they navigate their separate lives back home. Through emails and instant messages, they deal with middle school social hierarchies, academic pressure, and the specific jealousy that arises when a best friend starts hanging out with new people. It serves as a gentle guide for navigating digital etiquette and maintaining loyalty across distances. It is highly appropriate for the 8 to 12 age range, offering a realistic look at pre-teen social dynamics without venturing into mature territory.
