Synopsis
Sam, Pam, Will and Jill are crocodile friends with a camping plan but not much know-how. They get lost on their way to the campsite, get attacked by a swarm of bees, get all mixed up while trying to assemble their tent, and then get so frightened by nighttime shadows that their campout is in danger of fizzing out.
But all ends well, as it always does for this happygo- lucky crew. This is a breezy summer story that's “ideally pitched for prereaders or brand-new ones” (as Booklist said of its predecessor, Rainy Day!).
Publishers Weekly
In the fourth book to feature the industrious crocodile family, Sam, Pam, Will and Jill decide to go on a camping trip. While they're well prepared-" 'Take maps,' said Sam. 'The packs,' said Pam"-something, invariably, goes wrong. Readers should appreciate their haphazard (but not too shabby) organizational skills and identify with the nighttime fright that sends them packing (" 'Who growled?' asked Will. 'Who yowled? asked Jill") as the crocs seek a more comforting place to camp. Ages 3-5. (June)
