Lunch Lady 4: Lunch Lady And The Summer Camp Shakedown (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
Hoping for a restful summer camp vacation Lunch Lady and Betty are in for a big surprise as the stories of the swamp monster seem to be true...with the help of the breakfast bunch will they be able to get to the bottom of the pond and the root of the problem..Could it be the counselor that was passed up for camp directorcould it be the new camp counselor, after all noone really knows himor could the stories be true and there really is a swamp monster... A mysterious swamp monster threatens a summer camp’s fun, and the Lunch Lady is determined to get to the bottom of this case after the swamp monster messes with her kitchen. The fourth book in the Lunch Lady series, this graphic novel contains a light, enjoyable story. An introduction before the title page introduces the Lunch Lady, and other characters are sufficiently described to acquaint new readers to the series. While some of the main characters are developed with motives, a lot of the lesser characters fall into a gendered stereotype as being either obsessed with gross stuff or infatuated with a few members of the camp staff. Lunch Lady and her sidekick Betty save the day, complete with imaginative food-related fun gadgets and a conclusion reminiscent of Scooby Doo. The panels are created using pen and ink, with color digitally added later. Most of the illustrations remain in black-and-white, but with splashes of yellow and green for contrast. Panels convincingly communicate action, such as the swamp monster crashing out a window with at least five visual cues working to show what has happened. This graphic novel is recommended to children ages seven to ten.
