Part 1: Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4 Summary

Camp Green Lake is described (written as )and it's anything but what its name suggests (tells). There's no water, no green, and it's filled with rattlesnakes, scorpions, and the dreaded (horrible), deadly, yellow-spotted lizards. Stanley Yelnats, whose name is spelled the same forwards as it is backwards, arrives by bus to this camp for boys who've committed a crime (convicted to be guilty), only he is truly innocent (not guilty). Unfortunately, his family is just too poor to defend (save) him. Stanley's family is used to the bad luck which follows them, due to (because of) the curse his "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather" caused. Stanley, however, tries to have a good attitude (behavior) and pretend (think) that this will be like a summer camp for rich kids.
