Monk Camps Out

Monk Camps Out

Written & Illustrated by Emily Arnold McCully

When Monk asks to camp out in his backyard for the first time, his parents say yes. But they're nervous. Will he be able to set up the tent? What will he eat for dinner? Will he be lonely without them?

Nothing bothers Monk, of course�until he wakes up in the middle of the night�without his mitt!

Monk and his parents both get to trade in fear for fun in this celebration of joys--and frights--of those first key steps toward independence.
