Letters From Camp

“Dear Kelly. It happened AGAIN.” 

So begins Jamie Lee Curtis’s show, Letters From Camp. In the summer of 2005, Mookie Hooper— think Diane Sawyer in a training bra— investigates a girl who went missing from Camp Cartwright, while confronting the budding anxieties of tweendom. A heartfelt comedy told through letters written from camp to an unknown figure, Mookie tries to uncover the legend of the Lady of the Lake, make friends with literally anyone, all while trying to mask her errant pubes from the rest of swim class.

Written by Boco Haft and produced by Jamie Lee Curtis and Russell Goldman, Letters from Camp introduces Sunny Sandler as Mookie, Jamie Lee Curtis as Director Sue, along with performances by Edi Patterson, Jake Gyllenhaal and Kirby Howell-Baptiste. Tune in and enjoy the only camp that is open this Summer!

Cute story, too many credits

It’s a cute coming of age story. But I don’t understand why one minute of credits & opening music is inserted every ~40 minutes or so. Once is enough, really.

Worth Pushing Through

Although it drags at times it’s worth pushing through to the end. Fun performances, though a little heavy on tropes, it’s the somewhat ambiguous ending that leaves the audience to fill in the gaps by treating us as intelligent that makes the experience worthwhile.

Blackhawk Boys

I love this series & so glad each book is about a different main character. Yet includes the rest as time has passed.

Interesting

Great characters, good readers. What an interesting way to tell the story. Kept me captivated…didn’t want to stop listening!

Letters from Camp

Loved this! Reminded me of my Nancy Drew stories from many years ago!! Great job by all! Can’t wait for the next segment, and more Mookie!!!!! 😊

I loved this!

I am an adult who enjoys the simpleness of listening to stories geared towards children. They make for easy listening while I’m driving or completing chores.
The narration of this book/podcast was excellent. It makes all the difference when listening to a story like this. Sunny Sandler was fantastic. I would definitely listen to her again. And Jamie Lee Curtis was great as usual.
The story was clever without being sugary. Lots of fun references to the 1990’s.
Please make more episodes!

It was like I was there!

I enjoyed this Fun listen. It would be good for family listening with camp age kids too.

Awesome

Great story. Listened on the edge of my seat. Cried like a baby. Love it!!!!

Listen to This!

Really Good Listen - Kept you guessing - I recommend listening to this one. Narrator is awesome!

Read along with parent

Cute story, best listened to with an adult present that is fully engaged. One boy has 2 fathers and the lead girl has none. You may want to explain this to your young kids considering the target age group of this audible.
