Más información sobre el libro

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin’, this hilarious and creepy middle grade summer camp story takes a bite out of fat camp and diet culture. Magnolia “Maggie” Hagen is eager to shine on stage, but her stage fright holds her back. This summer, she dreams of attending Camp Rising Star, the performing arts camp she has longed for. However, her plans are dashed when her parents reveal she’s headed to Camp Sylvania, a fat camp run by the notorious wellness influencer Sylvia Sylvania, known for her Scarlet Diet. Upon arrival, Maggie finds the camp bizarre. Weigh-ins and intense workouts are expected, but the campers are also asked to donate blood, and the cafeteria serves only red foods. The camp’s strange rules change daily, and rumors of a ghost circulate among the campers. Despite the unsettling atmosphere, Maggie forms friendships and begins to enjoy her time at camp, even participating in auditions for a production of The Music Man. However, the fun takes a dark turn as campers start to go missing, and increasingly suspicious events unfold, particularly after dark. The camp ghost may be the least of their worries as Maggie uncovers the true nature of Camp Sylvania.
