Summary:
"If you're like most kids who love the outdoors, you want to do more than go on picnics or hike a nature trail. You don't want to go home at the end of the day. You want to stay out in the woods, mountains, or desert. With this guide, you'll learn how to make roughing it easy. You'll find great tips for choosing the best campsite and setting up your home away from home. You'll even find recipes for great fireside dishes, like mac and cheese, biscuits and dumplings, and s'mores, of course!"--From the publisher's web site.
