5.0 out of 5 stars A COOL book for all ages to read!, November 9, 1999

Camp is supposed to be fun, or is it? Sarah hates it. The thought of getting in a lake that is gross and slimy make her sick thinking about. On top of it nobody wants to be her water buddy except Della, who may be be her buddy for life!

The reason I liked the book was because it was very suspensful and very creepy. The part I liked most about the book was Sarah's plan to act like she is drowning, but what she doesn't know is that her plan will back fire and that there is someone at the bottom of that lake with pale blue eyes and a see through body! It is a great book for all ages, and I would definitely recommend it!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Goosebumps #56: The Curse of Camp Cold Lake (Mass Market Paperback)

I think that The Curse of Camp Cold Lake is one of R.L. Stine's best books. It's about a girl named Sarah who goes to Camp Cold Lake. The problem is, she doesn't really like the water, and when she meets her roomates, she starts off on the wrong foot so they pretty much hate her. Sarah isn't having a good time so she comes up with a plan. She's going to pretend to drown. While in the lake, an awesome unexpected twist happens, and now she's being haunted by a ghost. The ending is amazing, and I simply loved the book. The whole time I was reading I kept wanting more and I couldn't stop! It is truly a great book and I think most kids will thoroughly enjoy it.

After reading a different Goosebump book {Give Yourself Goosebumps # 8 Curse of The Creeping Coffins} I didn't touch one Goosebump book. But then in a book club, I got Curse Of Camp Cold Lake, I never put it down! Actually, I'm reading it after I send this!
