Gordon Korman’s uproarious, outrageous, and all-too-familiar summer camp adventure is BACK! Rudy Miller really isn’t into the whole camping thing. So when his parents send him to Camp Algonkian “for his own good” all he wants to do is go home. Rudy teams up with his cabin-mate Mike for a series of carefully planned — yet hilariously bungled — escape attempts. Unfortunately, their counsellor (and nemesis) Chip is as determined to keep them there as they are to get away. Rudy and Mike spend their days plotting, playing chess, and working off punishments for their failed escapes. Hmmm, maybe it isn’t such a bad way to spend the summer after all . . .

I Just Want to Go Home By: Sonia Collazo Strockyj “Welcome home,” someone held a sunflower out to her, and amazed, she accepted the dear gift, holding the precious little loaf of kolach in its soft rushnik close, but with her other hand she couldn’t help but bring the sunflower closer, drinking in its beautiful golden petals with her eyes, and its rich chocolate brown florets. She for a moment closed her eyes, a split moment, and drank in its sweet scent. “I’m home, I’m home!” For a moment she was transported back in time to a memory soft with freedom, for a moment she was back in Italy, taking her first steps into freedom, leaving Camp Bolzano, finally free from captivity. I am home.
