Illustrated by
Natalia Vasquez.
Max describes for his mother his camp activities, repeatedly declaring, "There are no baths at camp." The eye-pleasing mixed-media illustrations, however, show the different ways the children got (sort of) clean. Finally, before Shabbat dinner, the campers take showers. The slight but lightly humorous story will be enjoyed by Jewish campers.
