"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!

I had a lot of fun listening to this audiobook. Like most of the Audible podcasts I've listened to this is well put together and uses a range of narrators to bring the characters to life. I'm a huge fan of Jamie Lee Curtis and was delighted to listen to her playing one of the main characters, Director Sue. This was very funny at times with a few moments where the story moved into darker territory.
