Overview

In the tradition of Every Soul a Star and Inside Out & Back Again, Just Like Me is a funny, uplifting summer camp story about unlikely friendships and finding your place in the world from the award-winning author of This Journal Belongs to Ratchet.

Who eats Cheetos with chopsticks? Avery and Becca, my -Chinese Sisters, - that's who. We're not really sisters--we were just adopted from the same orphanage. And we're nothing alike. They like egg rolls, and I like pizza. They're wave around Chinese fans, and I pretend like I don't know them.

Which is not easy since we're all going to summer camp to -bond.- (Thanks, Mom.) To make everything worse, we have to journal about our time at camp so the adoption agency can do some kind of -where are they now- newsletter. I'll tell you where I am: At Camp Little Big Lake in a cabin with five other girls who aren't getting along, competing for a camp trophy and losing (badly), wondering how I got here...and where I belong.

Told through a mix of traditional narrative and journal entries, don't miss this funny, surprisingly sweet summer read

-A tender and honest story about a girl trying to find her place in the world, and the thread that connects us all.- --Liesl Shurtliff, Author of Rump: The True Story of Rumpelstiltskin

-A heartwarming story about the universal struggle of yearning to be an individual while longing to fit in.---Karen Harrington, author of Sure Kinds of Crazy
