The summer between sixth grade and seventh grade is here, and most of Skye's friends are going to typical summer camps or taking vacations with their friends. Skye decides to go to an outdoor camp in Vancouver, even though she's a little scared to be so far away from home. Both her inner strength and physical strength are tested as she battles homesickness, makes new friends, learns how to kayak, and bicycles her heart out. What a refreshing read! This is not your typical summer camp story. This camp is challenging and Skye is extremely active. This book shows kids that it's natural to be worried about going to a sleepaway camp, and that while a different sport or activity might seem weird at first, they should give it a try - they just might discover some new and exciting hobbies! Skye's the Limit is the second book written by Megan Shull about middle school hockey player Skye O'Shea. Make sure that you read Yours Truly, Skye O'Shea first and find out what happened when Skye started middle school. After you read these books, I bet that you, like me, will be wishing there were more Skye stories!

This is a great book for people who are thinking of going to a camp but are scared. Skye's thoughts and feelings are normal, and it was nice for me to get inside the head of someone scared of going to camp like me and see that it isn't so bad. Very inspiring with an interesting twist at the end.
megan can really write!

In the book Skye's the Limit, Skye O'Shea is am average 12-year-old girl, who likes sports, friends, and loves summer vacation. This vacation was going to be the best one she has ever had. She thought about her three weeklong journey to Cat Island Adventure Camp. She started to get a little nervous at the thought of being 3,000 miles from home. Her mom reassured her that it was going to be just as great as she had pictured it. Camp came around the corner quickly, and soon she was there, riding her bike all over the place, swimming, enjoying the wild life, whitewater rafting and sleeping under the stars. She quickly made two new friends, too! It wasn't always fun and games for her though. She also has to battle with being in Canada, a different country that is 3,000 miles from home and soon finds that she has to put up with a probably the meanest girl she has ever met in her whole, entire life! Even through the rain, the exhaustion and the bullies, she finds that she has more confidence and is stronger than she ever thought she was. I thought that this was a great book, and I think that more people should read it, because they could learn some great things from Skye!
Away to Camp

Have you ever want to go away for along time alone? Then when it gets really close to leave you don't want to go away alone? That is what happens to Skye O' Shea. She was very excited about going away to a camp called Cat Island for three weeks, but when she tells her friends and starts packing and buying all of the stuff she needs she does not want to go any more. The story gets better and better by the minute. It is one of those books where you say you are just going to read for a minute or two and you end up reading for an hour. It is a great book for teenagers or people who love adventure! The book really does not have chapters it is more of a diary. If you enjoyed this book you might also want to read: Yours Truly Skye O' Shea. I hope you choose to read this book.
