Dragon Slayers Academy, Hail! Hail! Camp Dragononka!

It is summer vacation for Wiglaf, and every other student at Dragon Slayer's Academy (DSA). After his mom finds out that his pig, Daisy, speaks pig latin which is supposedly an omen, Wiglaf and Daisy are kicked out of the house. So, they decide to take a trip to visit their friend Erica. During their travel, Daisy saves Erica's father who is a King. On the way there, Wiglaf's brother, Dudwin, also joins in. During their trip they come across a message tree, there they find a paper that says "come to Camp Dragononka". Both of them want to go, but it costs too much, but there is a hidden clause that will let you in if you bring three friends. So, Wiglaf and Dudwin go all over the place to get Agnus, Janice and Erica to go. After that Edwin even gets the money to go too. Upon arriving at camp, they realize it's not exactly the summer camp they pictured. This camp had tents, it smelled and the sun never broke the clouds. While they are climbing Dragononka ridge, Dudwin digs up some very surprising stones which turn out to be dragon teeth. During arts & crafts, he turns them into a necklace. After that, things start getting really crazy! He begins to see ghosts -- dragon ghosts. First, over a fire, then moving rocks that spell "go away". Finally Wiglaf believes him and gives a letter to Brother Dave, the librarian at DSA, asking about the Dragononka dragons. Brother Dave tells him some frightening news and they finally find out what the big dig is and why it is on Dragononka Ridge. Wiglaf and his friends learn that Camp Dragonoka is not all that it seems and they must stop it! Will they succeed, will they fail, and what is so frightening about the Dragonoka dragons....you must read this book to find out.
