The Camp Run Amuck Books

Each book follows the kids you first met in the adult Lawhoma Hills novels. Each book lives inside one kid's summer or season as they figure out who they are along the dirt roads, creek banks, and pasture fences of one of the most loving little towns in fiction. Friendship, family, adventure, banned books traded at Spruce Street Books, and a curated playlist running underneath every chapter.

Real Oklahoma seasons. The kind of stories that make a kid want to stay up late and read just one more chapter.

For readers ages 8 to 13. Each book stands alone. Together they build a world.
