publisher summary(s)
To encourage his talent for playing the trumpet, Morgy is sent to a music camp over the summer, where he has the displeasure of meeting Damian, an advanced student who likes to tease "promising beginners."
Morgy thinks Outlook Music Camp is a long way to go to get good at the trumpet. It’s almost in Canada! But Colonel Profundo gave him a ?promising beginner” scholarship. His friends, Byron and Clara, are coming, too. Dad says, ?It’s not just for trumpet, it’s summer camp and you’ll love it.”
Dad’s right but he doesn’t know the half of it. There’s canoeing, swimming, soccer and wild games of musical chairs. But there’s also Damian, oboe prodigy and bully. And Byron and Clara are in band while Morgy’s stuck in orchestra, playing a solo. What is Morgy supposed to do if he can barely read music, he misses his dog Dante and his cat Pancake, his best friend is in love with their trumpet teacher, and he sees soldiers in three-cornered hats sneaking through the camp at night?
Keep practicing, of course! First, Morgy made his move, then he survived fourth-grade hockey. Now, Broot-taroot!?Morgy goes away to camp and comes home with a song of his own. Maggie Lewis’s ?Morgy’s Musical Summer” is a camp novel to write home about.
