Bookroo's summary
James and Eamon's summer at Nature Camp takes an unexpected turn when they discover that staying indoors at Eamon's grandparents' house is more exciting than the great outdoors. As they indulge in waffles and video games, their imaginations soar, revealing that the best adventures often come from the unplanned. This delightful tale captures the essence of childhood friendship and the magic of summer vacation, where the real fun lies in the unexpected moments shared with a best friend.
From the publisher
A 2009 Caldecott Honor Book When James and Eamon go to a week of Nature Camp and stay at Eamon’s grandparents’ house, it turns out that their free time spent staying inside, eating waffles, and playing video games is way more interesting than nature. But sometimes things work out best when they don’t go exactly as planned. This Caldecott Honor-winning book is a moving and hilarious celebration of young boys, childhood friendships, and the power of the imagination, where Marla Frazee captures the very essence of summer vacation and what it means to be a kid.
