Vera shares about her summer camp in a style that flows as smoothly as fiction. She opens up about feeling Other because of her Russian family and customs, and because her family was low-income and couldn't do things quite the same way as her more wealthy friends. The sleepover scene was heartbreaking. It was fun watching her learn and grow at camp.
Graphic: Bullying
Moderate: Xenophobia
