Will they give outdoor camping another try? Be a little more prepared? A lot more relaxed? And NOT hug any skunks this time?
“Blending classic camping gags with trenchant satire, it’s an ideal comedy for a virtual reality–obsessed world.” —Publishers Weekly
“Burks' digital illustrations hilariously illustrate the family’s mishaps with sharp comedic timing…A hilarious ending will bring another round of laughs from readers.” —Booklist
“Dyckman’s straightforward and energetic prose makes for an engaging story. The use of speech bubbles with a large, playful font for the dialogue encourages interactive participation for emerging as well as more proficient readers. Burks’s digital illustrations are full of humorous details. The candy-colored vistas of Campingland are in sharp contrast to the gray-weather outdoor scenes of the real campsite.” —The Horn Book Magazine
“An original and fun read from start to finish, Campingland is an ideal and highly recommended pick…” —Midwest Book Review
“Perfect for camping enthusiasts and anyone interested in the outdoors.” —Story Monsters Ink
