Friday, September 20, 2024 - In this week’s First Chapter Friday, we dive into the exciting world of Gamerville! If you had to choose between playing your favorite video games and attending summer camp, what would you pick?
Meet Max Lightning, a passionate gamer who has just qualified for the Gamerville championships in the multiplayer video game Lone Wolf of Calamity Bay. Just when he’s about to level up, his parents send him off to Camp Reset! Will Max be able to balance his gaming dreams with the challenges of camp life?
🎤 Join Amanda Zieba, the self-proclaimed word nerd, as she reads aloud Chapter 1 of Gamerville, written and illustrated by the talented Johnnie Christmas. Stay tuned until the end of the video for an exclusive author interview with Johnnie!
📚 Blurb: Max’s gaming world is turned upside down as he navigates the transition from late-night gaming sessions to outdoor camp activities. Can he escape the clutches of Camp Reset and compete in the Gamerville championships, or has he played his last match?
