The Lumberjanes are great at finding strange things happening in the woods -- much to the dismay of their camp counselor, Jen. When curiosity leads these campers to a cave, they end up trapped by pookas intent on taking their places at camp. Will the girls get back in time to save Jen and the other campers?

While part of a series, no previous knowledge is necessary for this volume. These girls experience some misadventures while also trying to deal with the bumps in their relationships. Readers get to learn truths about friendship with the characters and laugh a little along the way at the silly scenarios the girls end up in. The message is good, but I don’t feel compelled to search out the rest of the series.
