by Carmela Lavigna Coyle (Author)
During a family camp-out, a young girl asks many questions about what they will do, how she can help, and what they see and hear.
"How come the campfire crackles and roars?" "I think it's requesting that we make s'mores!" Join our favorite princess as she and her family camp, hike, fish, and bicycle in the great outdoors.
Through rain and sunshine, fairy houses and fishing, this happy camper discovers that lots of fresh air and looking on the bright side are all a girl needs to make her a princess.

Coyle returns with Princess, ever the precocious child with her endless questions, this time about camping. Her questions include "What will we do if it rains?" and "Do princesses bike over mountains and brooks?" Princess discovers all of the fun one can have while camping. The story is written with minimal text, in rhyming couplets that keep the narrative moving in a way young children will both understand and enjoy. Gordon's illustrations are whimsical and cartoonlike, while background details are delightful and engaging. Children will giggle at the princess antics throughout. VERDICT Fans of this series will appreciate this title.—Megan McGinnis, Sachem Public Library, Holbrook, NY

Mike Gordon was brought up in the big city of Manchester, and although he spent time camping in the cold, wet climate of northern England, he soon learned the comfort of five-star hotels. He now resides in dry Santa Barbara, where he spends his days drawing the great outdoors but feels more at home in the malls close to home.
