The story is bout Troop 99 and how they will have to survive chaos and avoid getting in trouble with the camp staff if they want to stand a chance at winning the Golden Plunger. The synopsis is, Fifteen-year-old Do-Over wants to win Camp Winnebago's coveted Golden Plunger to score a free trip to a high-adventure camp with his fellow Adventure Rangers. But when the rival Troop 100 shows up, he knows it's going to be an uphill battle. Do-Over and the rest of Troop 99 are notorious for their terrible behavior, and they start living up to their reputation as soon as they get to camp. Turbo Cakes falls in love with the camp nurse, Uncle Ruckus tries to get rich quick with chocolate laxatives, and Shovel becomes a walking target for bullies. Their antics snowball into an unstoppable sequence of events that may get them banned from camp forever. I thought it was an okay read. Obviously not geared towards my demographic but I think that 13 yr olds may find it funny.
