Gabe never thought of himself as a nerd, but compared to Zack, his super cool soon-to-be stepbrother from California, it seems like everything about him is geeky squared. Zack is jealous when he hears Gabe is going to sleepaway camp–so Gabe CAN’T let him find out the camp is known as Smart Camp for Geeks and Eggheads.

Gabe has the summer of his life–filled with crazy bunkmates, a mysterious lice epidemic, a karaoke showdown, an intense Color War, and a midnight journey to Dead Man’s Island. But he can’t shake the feeling that the geeky aspects of it all cancel out the adventure. Are he and his friends nothing but nerds?
