Chunky Goes to Camp by Charlotte
Video review by Charlotte
Parent Guide
Yehudi “Hudi” Mercado was sent to detention so many times in school that his parents have decided he needs to spend the summer at sleepaway camp. He’s not sure how he’ll survive Jewish camp in the middle of the Texas desert, but things start to look up when he meets Pepe, another funny Latino Jew who can also see Hudi’s invisible best friend, Chunky.
The Three Amigos (Hudi, Pepe, and Chunky) get into all sorts of hijinks, including a prank war against the three preppy Joshes. As the pranks escalate and the truth about Pepe’s background comes out, Hudi worries he might get labelled a troublemaker again and wonders if he can save his new friendship and salvage the summer.
As the author notes, “If Chunky was about my journey as a middle grader finding my funny, then Chunky Goes to Camp is about finding my people.” This heartwarming sequel to PJ Our Way reader favority Chunky also works well as a stand-alone book.
