“A big-hearted story about music, ambition and finding your way when you're twelve. I loved it.”

“Music lovers unite! This is the book for you. You’ll be completely in tune with these bold characters as they try to master their music, friendships and worries. Such an awesome read.”

“Told in alternating perspectives, Miley and Juliet’s voices contrast in register and vocabulary, which offers young readers a rewarding mix of accessible and more advanced language.”

“Music Camp is a fun, uplifting story about music, climate change, and pursuing your dreams. ”

“It’s a delightful novel, filled with great friendships and the power to encourage people to follow their dreams.”

“This is a great story with lots of fun and an underlying theme of climate change introduced through the teachers.”

“A warm and funny read about music camps, friends and finding your way - especially when you are smart, sassy, passionate, ambitious and maybe just a little bit different.”
