nicknamed "Junk Bunk" by the other instruments. Despite their differences, they'll have to become fast friends as they explore the wonders and challenges of the camp, including experiences with nature, food fights, and camp pranks. Can they learn to be in tune with each other by the time the big relay race comes around? From the creator of the popular Pea, Bee, & Jay.

Children's graphic novel. An accordion, triangle, ukulele, and kazoo are cabinmates at Band Camp. They are in Cabin J, nicknamed "Junk Bunk" as it is usually last place in the camp relay race. But these instruments are determined to overcome that reputation! This is a cute story filled with puns and word play (including the names Cordelia the accordion, Zook the kazoo, etc). It is also a camp story, with pranks, food fights, scary stories, and of course competition. It's a fun comic for elementary school readers and the first in a series.
