Description
 
This is a comprehensive resource for parents and kids. Psychologist Christopher Thurber and behavioral geographer Jon Malinowski combine more than forty years of camping experience to bring families all the information they need to find, choose, and get ready for camp. This is not a catalog of camps, but a guidebook that allows families to select the best camp for their children and then ensure that they get the most out of the experience. Experts agree; this is the book that all parents considering overnight camp want. Highly recommended reading for families and camping professionals. Parents can benefit from the advice about conversations they should have with their children before they go to overnight camp.
