Brother and sister, James and Mandy, are off to summer camp. Their German shepherd, Rosco, is joining them for a week of archery, canoeing, swimming, and campfires. But while seven-year-old Mandy struggles with homesickness, ten-year-old James must deal with a prank-playing bunk mate, and Rosco finds trouble with the resident hound at camp. During an unexpected thunderstorm in a game of capture-the-flag, the troublemaker finds himself lost, alone and injured deep inside the forest. Rosco must play the hero and save the boy, but not before he and James teach him a hard-earned lesson about friendship. This action-packed story works well as a read-aloud for educators and parents, alike, with many teachable moments that lend themselves to discussion. Black and white interior illustrations add interest for even the youngest of readers. Realistic characters and detailed descriptions put the reader squarely in the center of the book's classic summer camp setting, and take the reader on a lively, contemporary, heart-pounding journey. All books in the series are standalone and can be read in any order. Fans of The Magic Tree House series will love this brother and sister pair, and fans of classic, heroic dogs - from Lassie to Beethoven - will love Rosco. *Recommended for children ages 6-10 *Grade level K-5th *17 black and white interior illustrations

Originally a graphic designer by trade, Shana Gorian worked in front end web design for nine years before leaving the work force to raise her children. After the youngest began elementary school, Gorian put her B.A. in English Writing back to work and began writing stories for children.
