The story is very emotional and small kids will definitely love it. My 6 yr old daughter was absolutely touched by the story and begged me to read it again. The illustrations are adorable. Kudos to the author for selecting this unconventional topic and portraying the camper’s story sensitively."-Nupur " Its a great story, and has fun artwork! For anyone who loves camping, get this book! It shows how a family can come together to make something worn look beautiful, all while creating memories!"-Jessica "This is an adorable children's book with a heart warming message. The colors are unique, vibrant and much like the actual version of the real Beatrice (yes, she really is a camper). The story and the illustrations go beautifully together It is highly recommended!"-Shelly
