20dianab - This book was AWESOME!!! It was like little house on the prairie, only an updated version. It was about a girl who has to go to this summer camp thingy with her parents and brother. But, the people there, don't allow any electronics or no clothes that aren't from the 1800s. The whole book just talks about that experience and the friends that this girl makes. I definitely recomend this book. Especially girls that are in 5th grade or middle school. It is sorta a mature book. Hope you enjoy it!

To her great dismay, 13-year-old Gen is spending her entire summer with her family at a frontier camp, where they must re-enact life from 1890, living without technology, growing their own food, tending a cow and chickens, and working on a project to better the farm. It's a fun premise that leaves Bell (Slipping
) ample room for physical comedy, while touching on themes of family and the (dis)advantages of modern life. Gen holds onto her sanity by sending secret text messages to her best friends (“I am standing in the middle of a cornfield. I am holding a hoe.... e are farmers now”), which they turn into a blog that attracts national attention. Cute Caleb, a fellow camper, is a welcome distraction for Gen, though he seems interested in Nora, the daughter of the couple that runs the camp, and the two girls butt heads. Gen's growing appreciation for the simple life is predictable (though she never entirely drinks the Kool-Aid—make that warm cow's milk) and the reconciliation between Gen and Nora feels contrived, but it's still a lively journey with empathetic characters. Ages 12–up.
