Nothing could stop Juno helping her secret ninja friend, Futoshi, defeat the Alien Lizard Men before they take over the worldexcept a book-themed school camp of course! It wasnt so great that Bella and her wannabe-pop-star clones were going too, but even that couldnt spoil her excitement at spending time with the two best things in life: friends and books. But unbeknownst to Juno, Book Camp has some surprises in store. When Bella and Juno get lost in the woods, the outcome is more epic than even Juno could have imagined!
