Army brat Anna Jo Grant is a fish out of water during the turbulent summer of 1971 and gasping for life. Anna Jo's dad is in Vietnam, her guilt over the death of her mom and little sister is debilitating, and her stepmother is god-awful, just like her complexion. Her only comforts seem to be a stolen dog named Troop and Joni Mitchell's new album until she's unceremoniously dumped at a camp called The Nest--where no one is expecting her. Here she discovers empowering new friends (one of whom is in big trouble) and the knee-buckling news that her treasured canine, thought to be safe back at the base, is missing. Thus begins the summer adventure of her young life. Narrated by both Anna Jo and Troop, The Seventh Wonder is not your usual summer camp romp.
