Jackson Brady desperately wants to be an average kid, which is part of why he wants to go to the Blackfoot Braves Society Summer Camp. But when you're the son of Clifford Brady, millionaire CEO of Brady Technologies, even the hills of Montana aren't far enough away. Immediately singled out by Craig, the camp bully, Jackson begins to regret his summer plans. Thankfully, he finds friends in fellow campers, and semi-outcasts, Austin and Mazzy, as well as Bill, the head counselor.
Jackson's favorite part of camp is hearing old Blackfoot legends and stories. The one he likes best is about Ma-Tas-Kah, the Sta-au (evil spirits), and the three chosen warriors. The warriors have yet to have been found, but when the time is right, they will save the people and the land from the evil Sta-au.
Jackson has been looking forward to the three day hike since he read about the camp, but Craig the bully picks him and his friends to stay and guard the camp, instead. Bill takes pity on them and gives them a treasure map to follow. While following the map, a freak storm rolls in. The three kids are forced to hide in a strange cave. There they find out that the legend might just be true. And they just might be the chosen warriors.
Such a fun story! I never got to go to summer camp, and now I'm even more disappointed. This would be so cool! Easy to read and fun enough to keep the youngest boy interested, not to mention the great illustrations. If there really were a camp like this, I would be there in a second!
