Liam Lewis and the summer Camp Curse
"I have 4 kids ages 3-12. We read with them at night before bed. Normally we read a chapter of a book and then send them to bed. But this book…ugh! Every. Single. Night. they are begging us to read another chapter and then another and then another. This book is bad for the kids' health because it makes them stay up late wanting to continue the story! I haven’t gotten to sleep before 11 the past few weeks because they just keep begging for more and become hostile when I sent them more of the story. I’m truly worried about what will happen when we finish the book. What if they riot??? My wife and I are scared for our lives. I’m all for them loving a book…but come on! I want them to love me too! A book shouldn’t make me scared for my life to just because I want to get some sleep and not keep reading until 2-3AM.
Well done Mr Greer! The kids really enjoyed your book and the world you created! They want to check out your other books!"

Thirteen-year-old Liam Lewis is a troublemaker. When he gets detention on the last day of sixth grade, his parents decide to put a stop to his shenanigans by signing him up for a three-week-long “behavioral” summer camp that is said to have a 100 percent success rate in rehabilitating kids like him. If anyone asked Liam, he’d say it sounded more like brainwashing. Too bad no one asked.
Furious about this unfair decision, Liam is determined to withstand whatever mind tricks the camp could throw at him. After arriving at the camp, however, he realizes that things aren’t as bad as he expected. No, they are much, much worse.
First, the camp director claims to be a wizard. Second, the camp isn’t even on Earth. Third, the only way for Liam and the three other campers to get back home is by recovering a stolen gem and stopping a curse from destroying the world.
Facing a treacherous landscape, dangerous beasts, and—worst of all—the frustrations of teenage cooperation, Liam must race against time to find the gem and return home before this three-week camp becomes permanent.
