On the last night of camp, they follow a shooting star to a quiet creek. There they find two silvery rocks glowing in the night. They each take one home, and their long-distance friendship begins. It's soon clear that these are no ordinary rocks. They seem to move on their own, get strangely hot, and even take over Tripti and Sam's thoughts! Inspired by their mutual love of their favorite book series, The Dragon Gems, they dub the rocks Opal and Jasper, after the Dragon Gems in the books. But others are interested in the stones too--including the owner of Camp Dilloway, who hides a secret of his own. Tripti and Sam must crack the Dragon Gems' code and keep them out of Dilloway's clutches, all while navigating the rocky road of middle school friendships and learning to stand up for what is right"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Rocks $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a East Indian Americans $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Jews $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Detective and mystery stories. 700 1 $a Baron, Chris $q (Christopher Leigh), $e author. 700 1 $a Dawson, Sam, $d 1961- $e illustrator. 941 $a 5 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20231212011131.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206013450.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231108010715.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20231103010139.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902013910.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=89D2DEC4495811EE9228709642ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
