Bookroo's summary

At summer camp in Nice Icy Land, penguins enjoy games and campfire tales. But when a spooky story becomes reality, panic ensues. While others want to flee, Tacky steps up with unexpected heroics. Will his unique style save the day? Dive into this icy adventure and discover the official Camp Whoopihaha song!

From the publisher

Tacky and his fellow penguins are off to summer camp in Nice Icy Land to enjoy themselves while Rock Hopping, Line Dancing, and playing Capture the Ice Cube. One night, they gather around the campfire to sing, eat s’mores, and tell scary stories. But after going to bed, something straight out of one of their scary stories pays the sleeping penguins a visit. Goodly, Lovely, Angel, Neatly, and Perfect think they should high-tail it out of there, but it is Tacky–with some unexpected heroics–who saves the day. Includes lyrics to the official Camp Whoopihaha song!
