BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL

APPEALS TO: SOME

Ruby, a mouse, and her family are packing their camper and heading off for a few days vacation in the park. While Ruby is a little nervous, she makes a new friend right away and they join other little ones to have a great time in the few days they have together.

Wordier than a lot of picture books written originally in English, but we do see the wide variety of fun to be had on a camping trip. The bright illustrations are fun - I enjoyed the diverse group of animal friends getting along so well.

The book was translated from Dutch by the Clavis team.
