| Publisher Description: Hardy Miller is off to camp But it's not the kind of camp he or most other eleven-year-olds ever experience. The camp is in a remote mountainous area of Java during the stormy 1960s. The campers are third-culture kids growing up in troubled Indonesia. Hardy faces adjustments to a strange new setting, while finding his place among boys and girls who have known each other for years. Hardy and the four other boys in his group are quickly nicknamed "The Crazy Cheetahs" because of the mischief they cause. The camp director even threatens to send them all home n disgrace. Finally they straighten up enough to work together in helping to rescue two grownups who are in serious trouble. Hilarious misadventures, a traveling circus, a Mystery Man, and a Mystery Monster all combine to make a good read. Hardy and his friends learn a lot -- about the world, about another culture, about themselves, and about God. |
