Trust me please when I tell you that not only will your kids get a kick out of the amazingly funny letters contained in this book, you and your friends will too.

Diane read over 3,000 letters sent from families and camp directors across the country in order to find the very best in hilarious camp tales. I found myself sometimes feeling a little bad for the ones who really hated their camp experiences, but the humor of this book far out-weighed any sadness for those who "NEVER wanted to be sent back again".
