Illustrated by
Carlynn Whitt.
Simple rhyming text complains about summer camp (until the final complaint about having to leave). Digital illustrations full of smiles make it clear that the chores, mud, and enforced singing bring more joy than pain. The text could apply to any summer camp, though Stars of David and other images in the illustrations suggest that this is a Jewish setting.
