5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need to summer camp, May 31, 2004

By	"lilmissprep327" (New York) - See all my reviews

This book is great for everyone in the family, mom, dad, younger brother, older sister, andyone. Its for first time campers as well as remebering summer camp vets. This book has both a parent and kids section, both equally great. Its informative, and fun. You can find everything from how to deal with homkesickness, to camp games, and everything inbetween. It is so easy to use, there is the parents section, the kids section, an index and a table of contents. I myself am a first time camper, and it truly helps. If you, your child, or your friend are looking for a good book about summer camp, this is it. It even has lists of other camp books and movies, and camp finding websites. It truly has everything you need to prepare for a fun summer camp adventure!
