Best friends Emily (a dog), Anna (rabbit), Bitsy (pig), and Nicole (cat)--a.k.a. the Jellybeans--explore the activities offered by Camp Pook-A-Wow. Soccer-lover Nicole convinces the camp director to let her form a team to play against Camp Mookie-Wanna. There's minimal conflict in the bland story, but Nicole's perseverance may inspire readers. Spacious watercolors illustrate the summertime tale.
