Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 1-3--This so-called guide looks like a cross between Where's Waldo and "The Magic School Bus." Double-page spreads are packed with cutesy comic art in bright watercolors. Maps look more like game boards and have no real use. The section on basics is nothing more than pictures of all the required camp gear. Though the book looks like nonstop fun, it packs little information. Midway through, the content level picks up a little in sections on tracks, picking a campsite, building a campfire, and not getting lost. There are some good environmental tips, especially in the "Leave No Trace" section. However, Jim Arnosky's Crinkleroot's Guide to Walking in Wild Places (S & S, 1990), Patrick McManus's Kid Camping from Aaaaiii! to Zip (Avon, 1991), Laurie Carlson's Kids Camp! (Chicago Review, 1995), or Lynne Foster's Take a Hike! (Little, Brown, 1991) are more useful and informative.

This review is from: Buck Wilder's Small Twig Hiking and Camping Guide: A Complete Introduction to the World of Hiking & Camping for Small Twigs of All Ages (Paperback)
This is the second edition of "Buck Wilder" that I have purchased, the first being worn out after only a few months. This book is written in a clear, concise manner easily understood by both adults and children. I found valueable information and earned some real "quality time" with my sons through reading this book. The illustrations are quite enjoyable as well.
5.0 out of 5 stars

My students love this book. We were lucky enough to have the author come and visit at our school for the cost of one pie. He told about the little worm that is hidden in each picture. The kids love looking for him and reading about all the helpful information in the book.
