by Andrew Waterhouse (Author)

Pesky kids, frisky staff and crazy antics... There's No Place Like Summer Camp!

There's No Place Like Summer Camp is a true story that spills the beans on what it is really like to volunteer with Camp America.

Leaving behind his quiet life in England and travelling 6,000 miles across the globe to Atlanta, Georgia, Andrew began a trip that would take him off the beaten track and lead to an experience like no other. Little did he know that the three months spent surrounded by strangers, kids and campfires would turn out to be the best summer ever.

Follow Andrew's adventures as he settles into his role as the Outdoor Living Specialist at Camp Honeystone. Experience the highs and lows of volunteering and see what it's really like to work at a Jewish summer camp. From learning unknown Jewish chants, chasing off hungry black bears and dodging lightning strikes this memoir is filled with hair-raising adventures and hilarious encounters.

Take a step into the camp bubble and see why for so many the memories last a lifetime. Not only does There's No Place Like Summer Camp lift the lid on camp life but it also tells a tale of transformation, friendship and coming of age. Arriving at camp as a shy, quiet 21-year-old Andrew leaves a changed person having made lifelong friendships.

Feel the joy, revel in the fun and get ready for the all-important colour wars in the action-packed adventure that is summer camp.
