    A sweet intro for would-be campers.
    —Kirkus Reviews

    Readers are likely to learn about animals that are new to them while enjoying the verse descriptions of the creatures’ habits and surroundings; they can also use this work for report inspiration and to learn about poetry conventions. But mostly this will be enjoyable for independent leisure reading and makes a solid additional choice for school and public library collections.
    —Booklist

    Its brightly colored pages are full of little bits of information that add an extra element of interactivity during the reading process. . . An ­excellent resource on basic outdoor knowledge and exploration. Perfect next steps for nature-loving kiddos.
