Boys, Bears, and a Serious Pair of Hiking Boots Abby McDonald

Seventeen-year-old Jenna may hail from the burbs of New Jersey, but environmental activism is her life. So when the opportunity arises to spend the summer in the wilds of Canada with her hippie godmother, Susie, this Green Teen jumps at the chance to explore this nature shes heard so much about - and the cute, plaid-wearing boys shes certain roam wild and free. But after a few unpleasant run-ins with local wildlife (from a larger-than-life moose to Susies sullen Goth stepdaughter to a hot but hostile boy named Reeve), Jenna realizes that her long-held ideals, like vegetarianism and conservation, dont play so well with this population of real outdoorsmen. With the help of a dusty survival guide, Jenna begins to navigate the wilderness, and those who call it home  -  but can she learn to navigate the surprising turns of her heart?
