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 dreams of attending Camp Rising Star are shattered when her parents send her to fat camp instead—specifically, Camp Sylvania, run by the notorious wellness influencer Sylvia Sylvania, known for her Scarlet Diet. Upon arrival, Maggie finds the camp atmosphere bizarre. Weigh-ins and intense workouts are expected, but the strange rules, daily changes, and a menu of only red foods make her uneasy. Even more alarming are the rumors of a camp ghost and the unsettling practice of encouraging campers to donate blood. Despite these oddities, Maggie begins to make friends and even enjoys the camp's production of The Music Man. However, as campers start to go missing and eerie events unfold, Maggie realizes that the ghost might be the least of her worries. As the summer progresses, she must navigate the camp's peculiarities and uncover the truth behind the unsettling happenings after dark.
