From Newbery Honor-winning author Andrea Wang, a new middle grade novel about a Chinese American tween who attends a Boston-based Chinese cultural overnight camp--and the many ways it transforms her. nPhoenny Fang plans to have the best summer ever. Shes returning to Summertime Chinese Culture, Wellness, and Enrichment Experience (SCCWEE for short and Squee to campers in the know), and this year shes a senior camper. That means she; her best friend, Lyrica Chu; and her whole Squad will have the most influence. It almost doesnt matter that her brother is a CIT (counselor-in-training) and that her mom and auntie are the camp directors. Time spent at Squee is sacred, glorious, and free. n nOn the day Phoenny arrives, though, she learns that the Squad has been split up, and theres an influx of new campers this year. Phoenny is determined to be welcoming and to share all the things she loves about camp--who doesnt love spending hours talking about and engaging in cultural activities? But she quickly learns how out of touch she is with others experiences, particularly of the campers who are adoptees. The same things that make her feel connected to her culture and community make some of the other campers feel excluded. n nSummer at Squee turns out to be even more transformative than Phoenny couldve imagined, with new friendships, her first crush, an epic show, and a bigger love for and understanding of her community.n
