Much like the image-cluttered cover and the super-long title, this book is absolutely PACKED with information about camping with kids! I used to go [tent] camping every summer before becoming a mom, but I have been an absolute wimp about trying it with kids. My husband and I have been talking about finally going this summer — with our 8- and 3-year-old children — and then I saw this book on display. I took it as a sign! I will admit that I didn’t have the patience to read through everything, but I found the packing lists, “smart tip” boxes, and lists of potential activities to be priceless. Granted, I haven’t put any of this into practice yet… But I can’t imagine that any failures I might experience would be the fault of this author!
