Camp Average: Double Foul

A new battle of wills heats up another summer at Camp Average. It’s a new summer at Camp Avalon - which Mack and his friends still affectionately call Camp Average. After last season’s big baseball victory, camp director Winston wants to continue the winning streak. So he’s launched a competitive program for elite athletes - including a new group of girl campers. When Winston enters his charges in a high-stakes basketball tournament, Mack opts out in favour of other, less competitive activities. But Mack starts to suspect he’s being played, as one by one, his favourite camp activities all get closed for repairs. Meanwhile, Winston pits boys against girls in a twisted attempt to win. To undermine Winston’s hypercompetitive scheme once again, Mack creates a plan of his own - but it means he needs to secretly sabotage both the boys’ and girls’ teams. Will Mack match wits with Winston and save the camp from the diabolical director’s clutches once and for all? Or will Mack’s own mischief be exposed - and lose him his summer and his friends? The second Camp Average book is a fast-paced and funny addition to this all-star series.It’s a new summer at Camp Avalon - which Mack and his friends still affectionately call Camp Average.
