Official synopsis Publisher
When Violet goes camping with her friends, Arthur decides to brave the woods alone. But there’s nothing like swooping bats and hissing snakes to make even the most courageous chimp run for cover. School Library Journal named Arthur’s Camp-Out, “One of Hoban’s best Arthur tales.” “The good humor of Hoban’s naturally cadenced dialogue and realistic detail mellows the message, while the childlike characters are as likable in her full-color mixed media art as in the text.”–K.
