Maisy Goes Camping

By Lucy Cousins

Book Overview

Five in the tent! A camping trip with Maisy turns into a slapstick comedy of errors in this hilarious picture-book adventure. When Maisy sets off to go camping in the country, it's only natural that all her friends come along, too. But they soon find that pitching a tent is not an easy thing to do. Even if they do manage to keep the tent up, there's the matter of fitting them all in - Maisy, Charley, Cyril, Tallulah, and finally, the huge elephant, Eddie. What a squeezy squish-squash! Good night, campers! Uh-oh-what's that popping sound?

Customer Reviews

Maisy Goes Everywhere!

This is probably the 10th Maisy book I've bought my granddaughters and they love everyone of them. The pictures in this book are great and we like the part where they include all of Maisy's friends. To me the paperback books are the best and easier for our 2 year old to handle.

FROM A PRE-SCHOOL TEACHER

THIS IS A GREAT BOOK TO INTRODUCE THE IDEA OF CAMPING TO CHILDREN AND IT IS NOT TOO LONG! THE CHILDREN ENJOYED FOLLOWING MAISY'S ADVENTURES AND THE PICTURES ARE GREAT ALSO.

Camping Trip With a Favorite Mouse

"Maisy Goes Camping" finds Maisy and her friends Cyril, Talluluah, Charley and Eddy going on a camping trip. Maisy is all packed and ready to go and they've found the perfect place to camp. Things become amusing, however, when the situation in the tent gets rather cramped, thanks to Eddy's large size. This is a simple, fun story. The illustrations in the Maisy books feature bright, simple patches of color inside large, dark lines. The text and story content are nice for bedtime.
